-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi
I have been following the OwnCloud project for some time now ( http://owncloud.org/ ), being interested in reproducing/matching Google's services as provided by the Google Apps which of course we want to avoid in this context. CyanogenMod makes it easy to have a "clean" Android experience, mostly-free. I am using that as I don't have any of the devices supported by Replicant yet (well, I did, then the Nexus One broke). This works for me but I'd like to invite actual Replicant users to try and improve the current alternatives to Google services. If anyone using Replicant wants to try using OwnCloud services, I have setup a test instance on a Dreamhost shared hosting account. Let me know off-list and I can provide you a testing account. It runs the latest OwnCloud version, and provides CalDav, CardDav, WebDav, file sync, music streaming, etc. Of course this implies whoever takes me on this offer will abundantly share the results back here :) Such services are supported by free open source apps, I have documented them here: http://wiki.dreamhost.com/OwnCloud#Android_Mobile_clients Having such applications pre-installed and some sort of integration to replicate the "login once on your device, everything works" Google experience, except adding a preliminary "setup your local/personal OwnCloud server" first :) Let me know, I will have to set you up manually, and the data may very well be wiped out every 2-3 weeks, but if you're interested in testing using a clean, vanilla OwnCloud server, I am making mine available.
