Please Describe the Issue:
The W3C DID WG would like to include the alsoKnownAs property to its JSON-LD Context and has heard that alsoKnownAs is being actively used in Mastodon for the same purpose as what the DID WG would like to use it for. The issue is that the term has not been registered in the AS Vocabulary. The W3C DID WG PR that is concerned with this issue is here:
https://github.com/w3c/did-core/pull/355
We are currently trying to determine if we should mint our own alsoKnownAs or build on top of AS 2.0. There is a strong desire to build on top of AS 2.0.
The ask would be to add the term to the AS 2.0 vocabulary. We are specifically NOT asking for any changes to the ActivityStreams JSON-LD Context file (nothing disruptive).
If the Vocabulary isn't updated/pushed out as a new TR, we're fine with that as long as there is an ED available via the Web that lists the term (and a future iteration includes the term in the vocabulary).
How can we resolve this issue within a few weeks/months? What's the path forward?
