ownCloud 7
Blaise Alleyne at 2014-07-23T16:06:21Z
I just upgraded to ownCloud 7 with a dead simple
apt-get update && apt-get upgradeThis is just in time for a trial roll-out at the office. Most notably, I'm super happy at how the new Files sidebar clearly delineates between your files, shared with you, shared by others, shared by links, and external storage. One of my biggest hangouts with ownCloud 6 was that my users would just created their own files and share them instead of having them properly set up via external storage, but this simple interface change will make the difference far more obvious.
Looking forward to seeing what else is new...

And thanks @Björn Schießle for the earlier tip re: ownCloud 7 and external storage!
That probably made the difference between us being nearly ready to deploy ownCloud now versus abandoning it for other solutions!

100% with you. This is exactly what I currently do, exactly why I'm doing it, and IceWeasel and Debian exactly are what I'll be using soon, too. shame on mozilla.

IceWeasel...

One of the (silly) reasons I've continued to run GNOME 3 under Ubuntu instead of switching to Debian is a hesitance to move from Firefox to IceWeasel.
With this EME/DRM stuff, for the first time, I no longer feel that hesitance. A trademark dispute is one thing... but DRM is another.

Not so long ago Wikipedia considered supporting proprietary video formats, but when the community freaked out they listened.
But then the w3c and now Firefox? What is it with these people?
If *I* can understand why they shouldn't incorporate proprietary software, why don't they?laurelrusswurm at 2014-05-16T02:49:18Z
