Description

The "file" Object type represents some document or other file with no additional machine-readable semantics.

It is intended that this type be used as a base type for other Objects that manifest as files, so that additional semantics can be added while providing a fallback ability for clients that do not support the more specific Object type. For more information see http://martin.atkins.me.uk/specs/activitystreams/activityschema#file
