i see - most of the participants hope that FBox will help in Leaving The Cloud, particularly - centralized one. Not only - introducing FLOSS cloud but - try to make a decentralized and own controlled as possible. So persistence could/should be like a cloud - maybe torrent like variant, if it's something like Freenet replacement and local storage could be proposed to identity storage - in the end - we'll know - our systems and could make them hardly crawled and without a man-in-the-middle duplication, and - at least - storing it's own identity file - people's can leverage on their own storage space, not even in the FBox cloud. > 2) Data Ownership (Application) can't understand what do you mean here, could you please - elaborate? if Application to work strictly with their own Data: I think - we - really - should - finally - make a system where the data and app would be separated, and data could be - in best of semantic web ideology and advancement of it - reused in other applications - that's i, likely, describe for web apps, i don't know much about POSIX , some "internal-system-data" reusing, but i know about web and it should be reused if accord to what W3C is trying now, among - enormous amount of other's work on the subject. Moreover - i think it Should be push-able, not pullable essentially, there are many FreedomBox like(by freedom idea) initiatives in of resource sharing, opening and transferring the data to CC like domains, some, even from governments, so in better world - we could easily do what Google has failed (IMO, as always) for in academical realm research, everyday "dummy"-usable data analytic, visualization, transformation, Etc. There are now initiatives like https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Sciencenet and far, far more, in all categories of science, in most spheres of life, because - such a re-usability is what - all mankind needs, i believe and could prove by facts. > I also much agree that an instance of etherpad would be quite useful. for a start, i think so, later - we could - doing the FBox project - use it's own new tools for own needs - nice conception. There are dozen of good variants for concurrent work, besides Etherpad, however - it's the right-here-now and has a nice conception, so - could be very useful. _______________________________________________ Freedombox-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss
