It's times like these, I wish I could move faster with Appleseed. It's quite functional, but I wouldn't feel comfortable recommending it to someone in the context of a revolution, yet.

I was thinking much the same. You're certainly doing the right thing by setting people's expectations that it's not ready yet ... but it'd be great to use this energy to help accelerate the process.

Have you thought about a presentation or blog post on "the promise and challenges of distributed social networks for human rights" (or something along those lines)? the timing could be very good ...

On that note, wouldn't it be mildly ironic to see BuddyPress used to facilitate a revolt?
