@tk More from that times about Laconica:
mcscx favorited something by lohang: @spaceman 1) I am not a programmer. When Laconica was launched I was already a free software user. I heard about Laconica during those epic Twitter downtimes in 2008. Lot of people were looking for alternatives. If I remember correctly, Laconica was first mentioned on Linux Outlaws podcast. They discussed the importance of having distributed and federated social network; and about avoiding single points of failures. Soon I became one of the early users of #Laconica ( #identica ) Laconica was later renamed as StatusNet. It then became GNUSocial as a result of the merging of StatusNet and Free Social projects.

@lnxw48 @dragnucs @zoowar ... and cleaning them up from old #laconica stuff (still there). In that step also that "hard-wired" web client can be separated (not removed, of course) from other logic code (means creating a real view toward #MVC). And if that is done (the transition will be mostly smooth) then a rewrite to more database abstraction will be nice (means getting rid of #PEAR).
