Status of FreedomBox within the Debian community
Labrador board wants to support FreedomBox
- Let's try to find sponsors in Debian for packaging, e.g. some PHP packages
- Debian Packaging for prospective packages
- Lufi
- perl + JS crypto library
- E2E encrypted filesharing
https://discuss.freedombox.org/t/file-sharing-alternative-to-coquelicot/235
- How it compares with Firefox Send - Firefox Send is NodeJS
- Pleroma
federated social networking, ActivityPub protocol, compatible with Mastodon
- uses fewer resources
- Elixir - needs dh-mix tool, hex2deb
- plan to host backend service, not web frontend
- use any supported client
- how to register?
- dependency analysis
CryptPad
- minimal resources on server
- client-side application
- collaborative office suite, but focus on simple shared documents
- share by link
https://discuss.freedombox.org/t/cryptpad-the-encrypted-collaboration-suite/274
https://wiki.debian.org/Javascript/Nodejs/Tasks/CryptPad
- most dependencies already packaged
Proposal to add wiki page for packaging related to FreedomBox apps
- Central dashboard for contributors
People ask for Mastodon and NextCloud, and including those apps instead of Pleroma and CryptPad may attract more users.
- Mastodon has more nodejs dependencies than pleroma
- The comparison between Nextcloud v. Cryptpad and Mastodon v. Pleroma:
- which app's resource demands are a better fit for our target hardware?
- which apps will satisfy our users most?
- There is a chance that including a docker container will not be incompatible with remaining a Debian pure-blend. The definition of pure-blend might allow for freedombox to include a docker container.

- Design circle with authority (mray)
