Done Criteria

Post making it clear that there are multiple IPFS implementation, that more are welcome, others are already doing this, and there are tools available to help (e.g., Boxo)

Notes

This is a tracking issue in GitHub so there is a public place for people to follow along, and so it can be added to project boards.
Planned content to cover:

Brief motivation of why (link to Juan’s talk from IPFS Thing 2022)
There is funding for new implementations (include link to video sessions and impact evaluator rounds)
Highlighting IPFS Implementations | IPFS Docs - feel free to add more
There is a lot of latitude around what can be in an IPFS implementation: https://specs.ipfs.tech/architecture/principles/
Implementers can join the bi-weekly implementer working group (link to notes)

I'll be supporting this, but will assign to @mishmosh once https://github.com/ipfs/github-mgmt/pull/27 is merged.

I still think this post makes sense, and maybe now we should capture the latest from IPFS Thing 2023. I updated the issue description with additional info.

The discussion of multiple IPFS implementations beyond Kubo has been happening for 1.5 years. This realistically isn't going to get prioritized by anyone at this point beyond the comms that have already been done. Closing as not planned.
