"FEP-171b: Conversation Containers" finally has been published:
Conversation Containers are conceptually very similar to FEP-1b12: activities are sent to a conversation owner, who manages the conversation and synchronizes it between participants. Differences are mostly superficial and may disappear in the future.

I’m super interested in all of these efforts to improve conversations and relies.
This looks like it’s pulled from Streams, yes? Which means it’s not related to the Forums and Threaded Discussions Working Group, is that right?
There are some cool ideas in here. Hopefully we can consolidate all of them to arrive at a single standard to implement.

@benpate Yes, this is a description of what Streams does with some minor additions of my own. It is not officially produced by the Working Group but they are aware of this FEP and we are trying to figure out how to arrive on a single standard.
Conversation Containers help bridge the gap between the "threadiverse" (which mostly uses FEP-1b12) and the micro-blogging space, where this mechanism can be used to implement reply controls and followers-only posts.

Conversation Containers were originally built on and for (streams), yes. They were pretty much done some nine months ago.
