Ask HN: What's the best open source social networking software?
By best I mean most mature software or easiest to build off of for your own social network system.

Appleseed (I think it's called) comes to mind, every time I saw Diaspora mentioned it was cited as a more mature project with similar goals.
Define "best"?
elgg is a Ning alternative that's got pretty wide usage
status.net (formerly identi.ca) is an excellent Twitter alternative
Appleseed, Diaspora, and OneSocialWeb are distributed Facebook alternatives
crabgrass is targetted at activists
depending on what you're looking for, any of them might be the best
