THANKS TO YOU: Nextcloud 9 is here - and all open source, now and in the future!
-
Thank you to everybody who helped: Nextcloud 9 is out. This was only possible thanks to the overwhelmingly positive response we got and the many contributors who immediately got involved! We are grateful for the help and promise: we'll stay true to you and open source!
That means: NO proprietary apps, no separate 'enterprise' functionality. Everything open, free, and ready for you to make a difference.
And as a taste, Nextcloud 9 introduces upload-only shares and enterprise-grade logging. Just for you.
See the announcement and get migrated now!
If you want to help: sharing this on social media is SUPER helpful. So is sending it to press or submitting it to forums everywhere. Make a difference and help people on a well maintained, more secure solution for their file share and sync needs!

I put the daily build on my personal server yesterday, looking good so far.
Do most of the apps from the old project work with nextCloud? Also, will some of them be added to the "Add Apps" section?
Thank you!
-
Nextcloud 9 is fully compatible with ownCloud 9 - it is a fork and, you know, we wrote it
It uses the ownCloud app store for now. We'll probably release our enterprise apps there, too, the coming weeks. Let's see
-
Will we see things like the SSO login plugin be moved to open source as well?
-
Very excited to get to play with the latest release and see what is in store for the future! Congrats on the first release.
-
@jospoortvliet Congrats!

ABSOLUTELY. Everything!

@LukasReschke talks about security work done for #nextcloud 9 - good stuff and reason to migrate.

Great! I know it'll take time to get all this done, but this is great to hear.

@travisdh1 yeah, it will take some time, but not long. 2 pieces are in already, 3rd is nearly done (theming) and we will have Shibboleth done soon, too. Doing it in the open brings real benefit in terms of speed and quality, Jan blogged about that: https://nextcloud.com/why-open-source-rocks/
-
Awesome! Can't wait to get this installed.
-
@fuznutz04 me too!
-
Here's our repo with Shibboleth btw

i only see a ZIP file for download. Can we install with YUM? Or do I have to SCP the ZIP to my box and extract and install?
-
@alex.olynyk I just used
git clone https://github.com/nextcloudyesterday. Just had to copy the files into the webroot for my previous owncloud install.
-
@alex.olynyk It's pretty easy. Just extract the tar into your web root and it does the rest. SELinux can be a pain though.

Yes, anyone looking for full repo based installs will need to wait a while yet.
Stuff like that takes time.

Being completely OSS now, we can go ahead and actually do said things for them

@jospoortvliet nice to see we are (as Xen Orchestra editor) not the only one believing in a fully Open Source model. The value is not code, the value is in community and services around the software.
Nice job!
