   @Bsstahl @evan It's certainly doable, I'm thinking along the lines of Event Sourcing, but I'm curious: Are there any social-interaction-type things you have in mind? Like subscribing to tasks or todo-lists, commenting on items, etc.? Otherwise, essentially private-per-user, it's kind of hard to see the benefit over, say, a slightly fleshed out and secured REST-API a la http://www.todobackend.com/ :-P

     @lpwaterhouse @Bsstahl I can assure you that a federated Todo app would be awesome.

     @lpwaterhouse @evan I feel like one of the biggest benefits of AS2 is its actor/entity capabilities. Being able to identify a resource like a location, executor or entity to be worked-on with a URI and allowing the consuming apps to manage all of that, feels like a big win from a capability standpoint.

     @Bsstahl @evan Hm, not sure I *see* the advantage over a more direct plain-json + REST-with-HATEOAS model (but then that's always the question with rich metadata: is it worth it :-P), but, as I said, it's certainly viable and far from crazy. So I'd say: Go for it! The only way we get to find out for sure :-D
