A bit more context: A few people (including myself) have decided to begin working on a Wiki regarding the wider ecosystem for the protocol. This was partly driven due to frustration about how disparate information regarding the protocol is, and how few resources there are to find projects incorporating the protocol, existing lexicons, basic tutorials for how to use the protocol, etc. We have bought the "atproto.wiki" domain, and we will transfer the domain to the site once we believe the Wiki to be in a workable state. Our goal with this Wiki is to make an easy-to-navigate and accessible encyclopedia for all the things that might not necessarily be covered by technical documentation for the protocol. We are also thinking of potentially implementing an ATproto-based forum for questions regarding the protocol and its implementation that can be indexed by search engines. It's been rather frustrating seeing the same questions be asked repeatedly in the API touchers Discord server (Discord has never been a good place for tech support!) We hope that, if we implement this forum, information regarding protocol development will be easier to find. We have some concerns regarding data longevity for the forum which we're hoping we can iron out before implementation. If things go well, we're considering creating a small nonprofit dedicated to upkeeping these resources for the protocol, hopefully with some veteran atproto developers in the board of directors.
