+Having packages in debian for a federated server would help more people
+install and maintain a server, encouraging the existence of instances
+sized for families and groups of friends.
+Sadly, as web apps, they tend to be pretty hard to package, and thus at

+and an IRC channel for people who are interested in improving this
+situation.

+Another thing that Debian is doing, with way more success, is running
+instances of a few federated platforms for Debian Contributors, but here
