*ForgeFed* is an extension to the ActivityPub protocol that is currently under
development. The goal of the project is to provide a server-to-server API for
enabling federation across code management systems such as Gitea, Pagure, and
link:Vervis_(software)[Vervis] ^<<1>>^. Development of ForgeFed is carried out
on its mailing list^<<2>>^.

ForgeFed was initially called _GitPub_ but it was later renamed to reflect
the broader scope of the project (which should embrace more than a single
VCS), as well as to avoid any violation of the Git trademark^<<3>><<4>>^.
