Include the Roundcube app into the ownCloud repository #1893

Open j-ed opened 10 years ago

j-ed commented 10 years ago

I would recommend to merge the Roundcube app (hypery2k/owncloud ), which is currently developed separately, into the ownCloud project because the original developer is not having time anymore to continue his project - see https://github.com/hypery2k/owncloud/issues/254 for more details. I think the app is used by many ownCloud users and would be a valuable add-on for it.

karlitschek commented 10 years ago

It all depends on the person(s) who are currently work on that want to develop it in the owncloud organisation. Who is working on that currently?

hypery2k commented 10 years ago

if anybody wants to take over the project feel free to use my code. I will try to add more unit tests (PHP and jasmine) and improve also the UI tests (thucydides based), but I think the UI tests are not that easy to integrate in the current owncloud project build. if any volunteer wants to take over the app, feel free to contact me

@hypery2k So you don´t want to work on it anymore? I want to make sure that every possible change is most convenient for your workflow :-)

hypery2k commented 10 years ago

the problem is just, that it's just a hobby and the interest and bug fixing/configuration problem issues are too much for this. I'm having a normal job as software architect.

Thats all ;)

DeepDiver1975 commented 10 years ago

Well - merging the code base of the roundcube app to the owncloud orga will NOT solve the issue to get the apps maintained. I'd prefer if there will be first a new developer and second we can think about moving the app in here.

karlitschek commented 10 years ago

So how should we move forward? :-) @hypery2k We can create a repository here for the app and give you full access. Does this work for you?

mckaygerhard commented 10 years ago

the problem in fact its that @hypery2k will not have more time to mantain the develop of the app, there the main problem

I suggest to not merge the app into the owncloud orga, unless we find a new maintainer. People will possibly assume that apps inside "owncloud/" are maintained.

karlitschek commented 10 years ago

Hmm not sure. We have other in maintained apps here too. I think it's the other way around. As long as the app is hidden in a private repo somewhere else we never find a maintainer :-)

j-ed commented 10 years ago

An important argument also is, that it is currently the most famous and most downloaded app with 29361 downloads.

exactly my point of view - as stated above. Moving the app to the owncloud orga will help almost nothing.

DeepDiver1975 commented 10 years ago

As soon as there is a new maintainer I'm happy to help out to setup transifex and all the other services we use.

karlitschek commented 10 years ago

@DeepDiver1975 So you will also help to find a new maintainer? No one will do this if the code is hidden in a private repo somewhere else

DeepDiver1975 commented 10 years ago

So you will also help to find a new maintainer?

Who said that? Anyway - do whatever you like - I'm out of this discussion - no my responsibility

today the most famous app in app.owncloud.org by 3 reasons now: 1) most downloaded (far far away from the second place) 2) with most fans (far far away from second place) 3) most rated ( with 86%)

and i sure for that: the most used app in the 70% of all ownclud hosts (and sure including the enterprice close-protectec-to-all flavor)

currently now i'm enhanced the wiki doc in the staled git repo

I'm not sure I'll have the time to be a full maintainer, but once the current beta of Roundcube shifts to production, it's going to break things in Firefox (having a loading screen over the window redraw causes a JQuery error). I've implemented a fix in my install that works with both the beta and the current official release (I need the beta to use sieve rules), and could put it into the current app, but I'm not sure where the official "latest" repository is at this point.

Actually, I think I've located it here: https://github.com/hypery2k/owncloud/tree/master/roundcube/src I'll do a fork and pull request and see what happens.

hypery2k commented 9 years ago

feel free to open up an issue at https://github.com/hypery2k/owncloud with your change details

Fmstrat commented 9 years ago

Thanks @hypery2k

I've created an issue with a pull request including the fix linked inside it: https://github.com/hypery2k/owncloud/issues/295
