I will move some of it to description and look at notes. >> This package lets you setup a diaspora pod in easy steps.

I will add it to description.

That is a generic message asking for password which may be left blank. I want to avoid confusion to user and explicitly tell them to leave it blank. If there is a way to skip dbconfig-common questions and go with defaults, that would be great too. >> . >> You will need an ssl certificate for running diaspora.

I'll move it to description and add Suggests.
