Will we see things like the SSO login plugin be moved to open source as well?
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 https://github.com/nextcloud/user_saml

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/nextcloud
yesterday. 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!

@jospoortvliet -- Is there a guide for migrating from OC 9 to NextCloud 9? I thought I saw a link but I can't seem to find it.
-
Will it ever work on windows server again?
-
And here a blog about migrating to Nextcloud:

Good question. I've heard good things about PHP 7 support in Windows so this might be doable in the future. The issue is that we do a lot of low level filesystem stuff and that was a pita in Windows - we essentially had to maintain a whole second file access layer. Perhaps this can be avoided now, in which case I sure see Windows support return. We're all over PHP 7 so, yeah...
