#Hm... 3 of the 4 founding members of Diaspora are still with us, even their posts are older.

It is @Ilya Zhitomirskiy, @Raphael Sofaer and @Maxwell Salzberg... cannot find Daniel Grippi.

D* was launched November 2010. And on August 28, 2012 Daniel and Maxwell announced, Diaspora* Will Now Be A Comunity Project.
As a PS. they write,

We also want to give special thanks to a few people who recently, and over the past few years, have shown us what a special community we have. It is by no means complete:
Mr ZYX, sean tilley, David Morley, Jan-Christoph Borchardt, Joe Braun, David Morley, Hans Fase, Florian Staudacher, Movilla, Stephan Schulz, Sarah Mei, Tom Scott, kinky joe, denschub, justin thomas, Steven Hancock, Diasp, Jason Robinson

For those interested, there is a video Daniel Grippi and Raphael Sofaer - on - Diaspora: Federated social networking from Wednesday, February 16, 2011

Question: Is Diaspora's web presence still owned by FSSN? And, is FSSN the Free Space Secure Network?

#hm... #interesting find ! never heard of Liszt's transcriptions before...

Franz Liszt: Wagner Transcriptions

This Liszt recording presents a generous selection of the transcriptions that Franz Liszt made of orchestral works by Wagner. Liszt, an ardent and devoted admirer of Wagner, supported him by performing his new operas in Weimar, and by making transcriptions to further popularise the music of his idol. Liszt, the pianistic wizard, transfers the orchestral sonorities to the piano, creating a new work of art, instead of a mere piano reduction of an orchestral score. The famous Tannhäuser Overture doesn’t lose anything in grandeur and bombast on the piano, and Isolde’s Liebestod is an exquisite, moving pianistic masterwork on its own.

Francois Dumont is one of the foremost pianist of the young French generation. As Laureate of the Warsaw Chopin competition he attracted international recognition. His recordings have won a Diapason d’Or and other prizes, his recording of the complete piano works by Ravel (PCLD0055) counts as one of the best to have appeared in recent years.
