I do not code much at all, actually: I do packaging (and Perl/make/shell 
scripting, but mostly packaging).

There is an existing client part implemented already in CoffeeScript 
called Diaspora x² which needs some love: Apparently it needs some 
updating to reflect recent protocol improvements, its author, Ben Nolan, 
is too busy to work on it at the moment, and noone else at Buddycloud is 
into CoffeeScript (some code in Node, some in Lua).

Code: https://github.com/bnolan/diaspora-x2.git
Fully working demo: http://diaspora-x.com/

Try join their Jabber MUC at seehaus at channels.buddycloud.com and get 
hold of Simon there - he seems to be in phone contact with Ben Nolan.

(I am working on Debian packaging - but no draft packaging code released 
yet as I need clarification on some licensing and I have not yet 
succeeded in getting hold of Ben Nolan about that).
