Comment on Password manager woes. How have you solved syncing on Android?

If you’re curious, their GitHib issues and website have a bit more about them: github.com/opencloud-eu/opencloud/issues/231

The Heinlein Group, to which OpenCloud belongs, is probably best known as the operator of the email provider mailbox.org, but also develops OpenTalk, an open source video conferencing solution. from heise.de.

Being the owner of mailbox.org doesn’t mean anything to me, but it’s context. And there’s more info in that GitHub issue’s links.

My impression is that they know what they’re doing when it comes to production ready software–I share the OPs concerns about the syncthing-fork maintainer–and they have the funding and acumen to stay in business, meaning their software will be maintained.

This bit from the heise.de article stood out:

Kiteworks, on the other hand, is less than enthusiastic about – a closed group of developers who are now using the same code in their own company that they already developed under Kiteworks or ownCloud? For Kiteworks, this smells like poaching, so the company is going on the offensive: in an interview with heise online, Kiteworks CEO Jonathan Yaron stated that he intends to sue Peer Heinlein under German and US law: “We love open source, but we won’t let anyone steal from us”.

facepalm

  Yeah, it seems like ownCloud isn’t happy about some of their developers forking the code and starting a new company.
  
  For me, that doesn’t really affect my opinion of OpenCloud for my personal use, though.
