Hi, I'm Patrick. I just want to introduce myself and say some words about our open planning process.
00:23
Something about me, I'm a product management intern at OnCloud in Nuremberg. I joined OnCloud at the 1st of September, so that was last week. Apart from that, I'm studying my master's degree in finance, auditing, controlling
00:41
and taxation. And yeah, I'm really passionate about free and open source software. Open standards like XMPP, for example, and decentralized and distributed web services like Diaspora and OnCloud, of course. So the open planning process is an idea which was inspired and introduced by our
01:06
former product manager, Matt Richards. I'm not sure actually he's here, but right now not in the room. But thank you anyway. What is the idea? The idea of the open planning process is to enable and encourage collaboration, participation
01:25
and also to value and appreciate user feedback. We want to do this to set a foundation for community growth, because it's the community who made OnCloud what it is today.
01:41
It is a great tool to regain control over your data and also to break out of the cages that proprietary web services put upon us. So in practice, we want to collect ideas or suggestions for new features, prioritize
02:03
them and split them into work packages that can be handled by the developers. The goals of the process are to connect people in the first way, because the one guy, he has an idea, but not the abilities to implement it, and other people, maybe a
02:23
group of people, have the skills to do this. What is in between? Communication. So, yeah, we want to establish a shared, visible and transparent and democratic planning process in which every voice can be heard.
02:41
So how do we do this? You may have heard about our community forum tool, which is called OnCloud Central. If not, have a look at it. I will create a topic there to discuss and to list all the features, features of wishes.
03:03
So for you, it is to create a topic, if you have a feature wish, and you create a topic with your detailed description and then you post that into the thread I opened and please contain the following information, like a title and the category, for example,
03:24
sharing or something like that. You post the link to your discussion topic. Could also be a GitHub issue. You give a short summary of the use case and say which problem it solves or why you
03:43
think this is important. Then the next step would be to collect some love, I mean, likes, of course, for your proposal and you give likes to other proposals. Here lobbying is allowed, of course.
04:00
You are even encouraged to do so. Then the next step would be to discuss the implementation or the design with the community and then find people to realize your future wish. If everything runs as wished, I say, you find your feature wish implemented in an
04:26
upcoming release. If there is already an existing feature wish, you can just add a comment and link to the discussion. If you have something to add to another feature wish, please do so.
04:41
To show you that this actually works, I listed out the top three achievements of the last process. So we have, for example, compute and store file checksums to guarantee file integrity. There's the GitHub link to the issue.
05:02
It got 29 likes and the server side implementation was released with 9.1. Client side is right now on the roadmap for 2.3. The next one was improving security by adding one-time passwords and two-factor authentication.
05:23
It got 23 likes and it was released with version 9.1. And the third was make favorites the same on mobile, desktop and server. It got 17 likes and server side implementation is on the roadmap for 9.2 so it will be released
05:43
in short time. Client side is still upcoming but I think the mobile developers said something about that yesterday and, yeah, it's coming. So, yeah, now I would like to encourage you to have a little bit of open discussion
06:00
like do you already have some feature wishes? You can now make your proposal. You can also approach me later if you want and talk to me about that or if you have some ideas for improving the process, please have your voice.
06:28
Yeah, here you have some resources, the general link where you can find information on how to contribute to OnCloud, the previous open planning process thread, the current thread is still upcoming.
06:40
I didn't have the time yet to open it and I will also write a blog post concerning that topic. So, yeah, here are my contact information. If someone wants to contact me, you can do that via mail, XMPP, diaspora or GitHub and I wish you a nice remaining conference.
07:03
Thank you. Thank you.
