buddycloud

Simon was hosting a talk at the barcamp in Munich this weekend.
The Isarrunde recorded his talk and Michael Preatorius talks about it on his blog.
There's not much to add, so just enjoy Simon's talk!

All buddycloud code is open souce. FOSDEM is the largest open source event and takes place in Brussels. We’re happy to bring the two together at the start of February.

This is a quick schedule of our events

Friday 2 Feb (afternoon-session)

We are planning a very hands on and focused meeting to solve a few specific issues. For example, we’d like to find a nice, smooth way to work out the kinks on how HTTP and XMPP servers can interop. (This is part of our plan to build a massive federated media server that can interact in both XMPP and HTTP-land.)
For directions and to participate in this hands on event, please send dirk@buddycloud.com an email so he can coordinate numbers

This was an exciting year for buddycloud.
The buddycloud channel directory was released, beta releases of the server and the webclient were pushed out, and the development is continuing at a frenzied pace.
But all this wouldn't have been possible without your help.
Whether you contributed code, ideas, comments or feedback doesn't matter. It was your support that gave buddycloud the momentum that was required.
Thanks!

Enjoy an unhurried christmas weekend with your friends and family and get ready for more awesomeness!
