* <<F2C.0423>> GNU so-shaddap!

I need to stop screwing-around with GNU social. If I'm going to
invest any personal time in software, it ought to be XoW.

I don't have a lot of confidence in GNU social turning-out the way
I'd like it to.  The people at the head of the project are "free
culture" folks, which means that they're really not interested in
copyright and provenance, which is a philosophical problem for me.
Additionally, the focus seems to be entirely on building a
microblogging application, which is a huge missed opportunity: a
great (well, good at least) tumblog system could be built out of GNU
social, which would be much more useful/interesting to me.
Furthermore, the basic design of the protocol and API are not good,
in my opinion, and it's probably quite unlikely that I would be able
to steer its revision into something better, due both to lack of time
(and support from K) and lack of clout.
