hi there...

the new website is looking good, thanks for that. but with the move away
from the kde infrastructure, what is going to replace the bug tracker?
http://owncloud.shapado.com/ doesn't seem to allow to attach files (but
i might have overlooked that).

the 8-byte padding patch (
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=280314) ) has been made, but
according to 
http://owncloud.org/contribute/development-setup/ , i need to adapt it
to the coding guidelines. but that should also be true for other parts
in lib/crypt.php, e.g. function createkey should be renamed to
createKey?


so what are the next steps envisioned? i forgot what we were talking
about 2 weeks ago in the chat (does anyone have a log?). only that we
will start with a non-perfect solution to this complex issue; a solution
that can be implemented within the next couple of weeks.

 http://owncloud.titanpad.com/tasks? says:


      * encrypt everything, starting with small files
      * prioritize likely private stuff (documents, photos etc.) over
        media (music, videos)
      * show a progress bar in Personal – with a note that one can wait
        until it’s all encrypted

is there anyone doing anything on it right now? re 3rd bullet: 'one
_can_ wait?' or 'one _has to_ wait?' is there some kind of background
processing within owncloud that could do it while the user is browsing
around?

thanks,
 Sebastian
