If folks who know and like these applications want to provide "recipes"
for installing and configuring any or all of them in our wiki, that'd be
great!

However, note that the objectives, chosen technologies (programming
languages, protocols supported, infrastructure required, etc), level of
current functionality, and maturity are all over the map.  Clearly, the
software for distributed social networking is a moving target, and no
matter which app or apps we choose to focus on, there will likely be
some amount of work required.
