   Why the web https://wiki.freedombone.net uses 127.0.0.1 ?

     Does anyone know if the history of the !fediverse is properly documented? Where can new users who are interested find out?

     Somsants went live early 2012, we hoped other nodes would appear in other barrios de Barcelona and a new sovereign network would be born. But it never happened (yet, anyway). Back then we all ran statusnet software. I don't know the details on exactly how the transition to gnusocial happened. @mattl @mmn I think the !fediverse really took hold after the identica incident. It was as if the sun had been removed from the solar system. Just a few disorientated planets left behind. It was only then, once the overwhelmingly big central node had gone, that other nodes grew in equal conditions.
     
     I also remember Erkan finding us and getting in touch personally by email. Pulling us together, letting us know we were not alone and creating a sense of sysadmin community. I found this old email.

     Subject: Fwd: 1. security hole in your Statusnet instance
     Hola,
     see below points 1 and 3-5 (don't make the patch public yet until we reach most of the SN admins)
     join also the SNadmins group (1) + the mailing list (2) so next time I have not so much work to do.
     Also: if you know the email of other SN admins, tell them please.

     Hi,
     1. we discovered today a SQL injection bug in Statusnet (SN)
     I'm trying to get hold of most SN admins but my dent (1) seems not to reach you (2) this is the fix: http://somsants.net/url/113352
     
     2. The text at the bottom of your statusnet install says: http://somsants.net/url/3787 is a microblogging service brought to you by "Free Software Foundation". but the link is wrong (the part between " ")
     http://somsants.net/url/113353
     3. don't distribute the patch for 1. yet in public before we reach all SN admins (3)
     4. Joshua will report this soon as CVE
     5. you can reach us in the freenode irc channel #statusnet
