@Gargron @cwebber - the only thing with an actual RFC behind it when OStatus was born was atom. Salmon, webfinger, pubsubhubbub and activitystreams were all "proposals" of some type; and those that have since been standardised have done so in a radically different form (ActivityStreams and Webfinger were both standardised as json and only vaguely resemble the old XML specs). What made these things "standard" for OStatus was apparently the fact that they were proposed at one time for the OpenSocial initiative and many were in use at Google (which dropped all of them when G+ was born).

  @mike you have detailed knowledge about standards/ protocols. Care to help expand this attempt at mapping them?

    Internet Protocols
    
    I wonder if it's possible to map all the protocols and standards used in every service used over the internet, including the web? to regulate net traffic? Protocol = an agreed set of road rules for regulating traffic flow over the network. Standard = a set of protocols implemented in a specific way to provide a specific service.

    @mike or maybe flick me some links to reliable articles that can guide my on standards/ protocols mapping attempts?
