As a Chromebook owner who put Ubuntu on it: The main concern or solution here seems to be to make ownCloud cope better with being offline. Use more client (JS) and less server (PHP) logic, use local browser databases for data caching (localStorage, indexedDB) and cache the apps themselves (AppCache).
That way there's also less dependence on the server and better performance because not everything has to be loaded again so often. Of course this involves major code forward, but the Appframework and newer apps already are on the path to this. Also solves one of my pet peeves: the files app reloads every time you click a folder … This would also make ownCloud better compatible with Firefox OS. Would be quite strange to make "thin client apps" for the "fat web frontend" instead of just improving it for everyone. _______________________________________________ Owncloud mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/owncloud
