The form on the page only accepts https or mailto. However, I would like to also provide a matrix account via the matrix: scheme ( https://www.iana.org/assignments/uri-schemes/prov/matrix ) as their system provides end to end encrypted chats which is a nice way to do direct messaging for further talking. The security.txt here would verify my user id for this communication.

(Also I guess this circles back to the RFC, but basically I am thinking this makes sense here as compared to email and telephone or websites it provides proper end to end encryption build into the system which a) is easier and b) safer in my opinion)

As per the RFC, any valid URI can be used in the contact field: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9116.html#name-contact

The value MUST follow the URI syntax described in Section 3 of [RFC3986].

Looks like "matrix" is a valid URI: https://www.iana.org/assignments/uri-schemes/uri-schemes.xhtml

Yep the matrix URI was I think accepted after I opened this Issue :) so I guess this is now resolved?
