Packaging for Ubuntu via a PPA.
Launchpad team: https://launchpad.net/~diaspora-ppa
Project: https://launchpad.net/diaspora-ppa
Target: have Diaspora* install and run on Ubuntu as easily as possible, user only needs to add PPA, install the Diaspora* package(s) and create development and production environments easily with a few commands.

It's not as easy as doing "sudo apt-get install diaspora-dev" and starting development. That is how easy we need to make it :)

I definitely agree with you there. We need to make it really stupidly easy to set up a Diaspora pod, at least from the distribution's side of things.

Yeah, probably not. I was just curious as to whether packaging our bleeding edge would be useful for Ubuntu users. I mean, it's easy enough to set up a develop localhost environment. ;)
