Introduction Activity Streams [asms] is a data format for "the serialization of a stream of social activities using the JSON format" [RFC4627]. Version 1.0 of the specification was published in May of 2011 by the Activity Streams Working Group (<http://activitystrea.ms>) and has been implemented in a broad range of applications. This specification defines and registers the "application/ stream+json" Content Type to represent JSON document resources that conform to the JSON Activity Streams Version 1.0 Specification [asms]. 2. IANA Considerations This specification registers the application/stream+json MIME Media Type: Type name: application Subtype name: stream+json Required parameters: None Optional parameters: "charset" : Specifies the character set encoding. If not specified, a default of "UTF-8" is assumed. Encoding considerations: Resources that use the "application/ stream+json" media type are required to conform to the "application/json" Media Type and are therefore subject to the same encoding considerations specified in Section 6 [RFC4627]. Security considerations: As defined in this specification Published specification: This specification. Applications that use this media type: JSON Activity Streams are implemented by a wide range of existing applications.
