Hello Mario, Do you mean Mairin and her Design Hub? That's a really great idea. The alternative to dropbox, however, is somewhat different. I think, Jan-Christoph was referring to the collaboration of GNOME and KDE to create a FOSS dropbox alternative, which isn't meant exclusively for the collaboration of designers and other parties involved.
I don't know what's been planned for the Design Hub already, but I think, it's possible for it to have a FOSS dropbox alternative package as a dependency. That way, we'll be hitting two birds with one stone :) Allan On Mon, Mar 22, 2010 at 6:43 AM, Mario Đanić <mario.da...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I am working with Miriam from GNOME/Fedora to make it a reality > (hopefully for GSoC), > and I have at least several times said that collaboration is the way to go. > > Thank you for repeating it, I really think there is a lot of potential > in collaboration. > > Cheers, > Mario > > On Sun, Mar 21, 2010 at 23:41, Jan-Christoph Borchardt <j...@inquata.com> > wrote: > > There seems to be a real need for a FLOSS alternative to Dropbox in > > both GNOME and KDE.
