It was with exceptional pleasure that we heard about DreamHost's plans add StatusNet to their one-click install program. DreamHost has a great reputation among Web pros for its exceptional hosting options, and we're often asked about how to install on their platform. Having the software available as a one-click install is going to help a lot of DreamHost customers.

Hello All,
Tonight, at 9:00pm EST we'll be performing site maintenance on the StatusNet Cloud Service.  All status.net-hosted sites (including Identi.ca) will be offline for a brief period during the upgrade. It is expected that there will be some performance degradation as we bring the site back online, and that it could continue through sometime around 1:00am EST.   As usual, we apologize in advance for any inconvenience this disruption in service might cause.

Last week we started a poll to measure community will on the preferred character limit for identi.ca. We used a polling tool built into the Drupal system we use for this blog. We also used an ad hoc system, asking users to post on Identi.ca with tags like #limit140, #limit280, to indicate their preference.
