I contributed this release cycle. My incentive is that Diaspora is already a working replacement for FB or G+, but still lacks some features or has a few warts. I tried to fix one of these and it's now in the new release and Diaspora is a little better. That's how open source is supposed to work, isn't it?

I invited all my friends, nearly all joined. It's not impossible.

That is the spirit, you will never change anything by just grumbling.

I think we all realize how difficult is to convince non-technical people that something is dangerous to use, but we shouldn't give up.
