@nprofile1q...bureaucracy
Bureaucracy is not necessary, the FEP process proves that. However, I can tolerate bureaucracy if people who are running the standardization process are qualified for the job. E.g. I wouldn't mind if fediverse was represented by an alliance of Mastodon, PeerTube and Lemmy developers.
I'm also down to work together with you on writing an FEP together, and/or writing up some of my ideas about how an MLS-based protocol could work
That would be great, although I am not sure if MLS is our best option. It is too complicated.
