First, great work on laconica.

Have a couple of questions

For the web based installer why re-invent the wheel? Joomala has a very
modular installer that could be plugged in here (i know, i've done it before
for other php projects :)

Do many other php projects have rpm based installers? This begs the question
where's .deb or .mydistro installers?

I've only been working with laconica for a few days but I think a great next
step would be to have a bugfest or similar where the main devs and others
try to squash as many open  bugs in trac as they can in one day (i'd be
willing to help  :)

Keep up the good work, cant wait for more changes to be merged into git
mainline.
