A venue or organiser as a publishing party: the small amount a grassroots space needs to be findable and pointable-at. Publishing this does not make the venue an audience-data platform — audiences publish their own beads referencing the venue's listings, and the venue reads public references. Nothing about an attendee is ever collected here. Events at this venue are published as community.lexicon.calendar.event records; this profile carries what a venue needs that an event does not — capacity and access, which funders and licensing ask for.
