Thanks for the updates on this.  I hope this is not too far off topic.

In terms of "apps for human beings" I think telegram is one of the few apps
that really is both free software (at least the client) and a first class
user experience.

There is talk about the server side becoming open source.  I would love to
see a company we trust, like canonical, one day running such a node.  I
believe mark uses it, so I'm really encouraged.
