Dave Tosh says in the comments:

“We are planning to release the system as Open Source – hopefully by the end of this week, fingers crossed!”

To which I say that is fan-bloody-tastic! For those of you who don’t know Elgg is a kind of authenticated blog / FOAF tool that might just be the answer you’re looking for when it comes to protecting the kiddies while reaping the rewards of the social networking & communication possibilities for blogging… one to keep an eye on!

Dave, have you considered some sort of developer / user community, a la WPMU, that might seriously enhance some development?

  1. Registration is currently disabled – we will be opening up for general registration as soon as pre-alpha testing is complete. :(

  2. “Dave, have you considered some sort of developer / user community, a la WPMU, that might seriously enhance some development?”

    Thanks for the suggestion James – we will certainly explore this type of option!
