As I mentioned on IRC before, anything we release publicly as a package next should be labeled "alpha" at most. Beta is becoming more and more of a term used by everyone, especially Google, to denote ready-to-use apps. Even Diaspora is still in alpha. Also, I am all for waiting to release "ownCloud 2.0 alpha" until we can include sharing because it’s so killer. Releasing a preview for Desktop Summit is one thing which we can do (and would sure get publicity) – but on the other hand we don’t have a desktop client yet and I’d rather have it we not release the "official" alpha only for the sake of the conference. Let me know your thoughts. :) Btw, the communication on Diaspora & Identi.ca is really, really awesome. Lots of questions, answers, private messages. I’m really comfortable that we support other free, open & rad web projects. I talked with Aaron about getting active on Twitter – which I’d say is only cool if we are able to get Twitter to give us the @owncloud account (currently taken by a 0-poster) to have repeats / retweets always link to a valid ownCloud account. And last: we love the people from MediaGoblin, Unhosted & PageKite! If you haven’t checked out these projects you totally should. Also join their IRC channels. :) Thanks to everyone working on ownCloud. This is an amazing project! _______________________________________________ Owncloud mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/owncloud
