[spec] [tech] A new Capsule

[ There wasn't *one* email on the Gemini mailing list yesterday 18

January. Distressing :-) ]

The term "capsule", widely used in the Gemini world, may become

overloaded with this new project:

https://capsule.social/

The Web site is empty but there is a longer presentation:

A new project from Nadim? Interesting.

Anyway, I think it?s okay since it?s mostly a jargon term used by users

rather than the name of a core element of the protocol. I would be more

worried if it was named Gemini Protocol ahahah.

There are too many things called Gemini, it's a bit too much confusing for newcomers.

Quiet at last. Is there actual sign of life on the [spec] front? Or morass it is?
