Inbox Forwarding Clarification

[cjslep]

The spec reads:

To do this, the server MUST target and deliver to the values of to, cc, and/or audience if and only if all of the following are true

The values of to, cc, and/or audience contain a Collection owned by the server.

The server MUST only target the values of to, cc, and/or audience on the original object being forwarded

The way the above reads to me is that if any of the to/cc/audience are a Collection owned by the server, then all of the to/cc/audience values on the original object are to be delivered to.

Some suggestions:

To do this, the server MUST examine each value of to, cc, and/or audience and deliver the Activity to it if and only if such a value satisfies all of the following criteria

The to, cc, and/or audience value is a Collection owned by the server.

The server MUST only examine the values of to, cc, and/or audience on the original object being forwarded

For example, given example.com receiving:

{
  type: "Create",
  to: [
    "http://example.com/addison",
    "http://foo.bar/brook"
  ],
  cc: "http://example.com/addison/followers"
}

I think the intention is for example.com to forward the activity to only http://example.com/addison/followers, though the language of the spec makes it hard to discern this. Thankfully, the example in the spec does help highlight the intentions.
