The Salmon Protocol: Unification of Conversation Entities
Aimed at extending the benefits while mitigating the shortcomings of social aggregation systems like PubSubHubbub, the Salmon protocol seeks to unify the conversation threads from source publishers through to distributed layers and subscribers.
Where publishers may use protocols like PubSubHubbub to easily and efficiently syndicate their content out to many different subscribers, Salmon seeks to further unify these sources by building a communications network where the conversations happening across many different networks can be synced.
