      Guys, good discussion. I don't want to comment on the ownCloud side of things, that's up to them.

      If you have questions about us, our goals, our roadmap - yes, watch the video of the hangout Frank and myself did, that's a good one. And on https://nextcloud.com/news are blogs apearing from our employees who share their ideas - ideas we want to get input on and discuss.

      We've just started 2 days ago so it will take at least until next month before we can release anything. It will be a drop-in replacement to ease migration and upgrade. After that - well, we have big plans of course.

      We are growing our engineering team, many are going to join us the coming months (in germany you have a 1 or 2 month notice time so people working at other companies often take some time to join). We are obviously also looking to hire sales, marketing, support and other people a company needs. Some we have or will join soon but more is welcome and if you're interested in a job at a cool open source company, let us know!

        @jospoortvliet Excited to see what you guys will be doing. I'm assuming that we have a quiet month coming up ... we'll be waiting as we will want to get the new product installed and run through the ringer as soon as possible.

          This is very good news for those of us who were attempting to get OC 9.x.x installed and working. The feeling that OC had already given up on the open source deployment had started to creep in.

            Version 9 works perfectly fine with PHP 5.4 and 5.6. And any new user can install it that way just fine.

            They have sadly not done anything about php 7.

              Yeah, I've been following the PHP 7 stuff since I'm subscribed to the issues and no fixes have come through at all. It's total silence, basically, on the whole thing.

                    So, the big news is: we moved our release from early July to TODAY.

                    And we will NOT be doing any proprietary code, all 'enterprise' functionality will become available, fully open source, the coming weeks. Yay 😉

                            @jospoortvliet -- Is there any documentation for migrating/upgrading from ownCloud to Nextcloud?

                              I published a blog about migration: http://blog.jospoortvliet.com/2016/06/migrating-to-nextcloud-9.html
