Colophon is a house for authored work: reading, authorship and publishing built on Works, Expressions, Revisions and Editions. An edition is bound and sealed to a revision, so what a reader holds cannot quietly change underneath them. Multilingual at the root rather than bolted on at the edge, provenance on everything published, and a reader-author relationship that needs no social graph. No feed, no follower counts, no engagement metrics anywhere in it.
