So instead of paying the company, you can also just run PageKite on your own server for free, if you have one, and connect your FreedomBox to it so it gets a public IP and DNS.
With HTTPS, the TLS connection can either terminate at the PageKite server, or at your box, both is possible, the latter is obviously preferable. > > > >> >> >> >> Markus >> >> >> Am 4/4/2015 um 6:05 PM schrieb Melvin Carvalho: >>> >>> >>> On 4 April 2015 at 20:17, Markus Sabadello >>> <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> >>> wrote: >>> >>> Hello, >>> >>> We concluded the GETD event this week: >>> >>> http://get-d.net/get-decentralized-san-francisco-bay-area-spring-2015/ >>> >>> I brought several of my CubieTruck-based FreedomBox >>> prototypes. >>> It turned out to be not so much a hackathon with a lot >>> of developers, rather it was a smaller gathering with >>> presentations and workshops and people from various >>> backgrounds. >>> So unfortunately we didn't really get to work on any of >>> the TODO items that Sunil has put together. >>> >>> German startup Jolocom <http://jolocom.com/>, who >>> convened the event, showed a demo of a mobile app where >>> you can navigate a distributed semantic data graph >>> (using RDF / Linked Data technology). >>> So we installed a Linked Data server on the >>> FreedomBoxes, and that was the main focus of the event. >>> >>> >>> Sounds very interesting, thanks for sharing.
