(: == OpenID server == Would it make sense for HCoop to be an [[http://openid.net/|OpenID]] provider? [[http://pypi.python.org/pypi/gracie/0.2.6|Gracie]] is a server that authenticates users using PAM, and it's in Debian. We could allow users to register their identity URIs using domtool, as well as supporting `http://hcoop.net/~user` automatically. === *scratch* === Gitweb URIs: Repo.or.cz uses cleaner URIs than gitweb's defaults -- for example, `/w/foo.git/commit/abcdef` for viewing an individual commit. We should patch our gitweb script to provide something similar. It might also be useful to host hgweb and darcsweb instances. At least one user wants to host mercurial repositories, and several of us use darcs. |

HCoop member since 2005; served as Secretary 2011--2018
Top priorities
- Jitsi Meet support
ActivityPub-based libre social networking system (e.g., Mastodon, Pleroma, etc. -- Twitter/FB alternatives)
- Matrix or a similar libre text-chat system (maybe; at least we have IRC and XMPP)
- Finish HCoop packaging for Guix to make it easier for non-sysadmins to experiment
- Implement client-side HCoop integration under Guix System (openafs service, etc.)
Help resolve the WikiReplacement2021 situation
*scratch*
Automagic LetsEncrypt integration: ideally make it entirely automatic and enabled by default
- Allow use of GNU Guix on HCoop (provided that resource requirements are not too high)
- Informally federate with other hosting coops and collectives? Perhaps go further and informally federate with workers coops as well?
- Better domtool usability; perhaps eldoc integration, a GUI/form-based interface to (a subset) of the language, etc.
- Become a small-scale Gandi domain reseller? (easy "buy and add a domain" system for portal)
- Better voting system for board elections (ranked-choice or similar)? Purely a theoretical issue right now
- Try out some gitweb alternatives, like sourcehut, gitile, .... Minimally a nicer gitweb-type browser would be good; it'd also be useful to have Github/Gitweb-style PRs, though there are probably issues (spam) with allowing that for contributions from non-members (would we need a vmail-type system for auth? or just restrict pushing to members)
- Kerberos 2FA support?
Single sign-on for hcoop.net websites? (not kerberos-based due to lack of browser support under typical configurations, although that's theoretically possible, perhaps with a WebExtension...)
- Disable wiki captchas for logged-in users, or verified users in a particular group
- Try out account renaming
- Licensing policy (libre licensing for software and official documentation)
- Contemplate new/adjusted logo design
- Website design tweaks
- Sieve support for roundcube
- Discuss possible uses of a surplus
- Integricloud offers POWER9-based hosting (presumably with RaptorCS hardware), but is expensive and probably not a good candidate for several other reasons
Rethink VolunteerResponsePolicy: consider ntk's comment on admin vs. operational response times, also perhaps require sysadmins to take some time off periodically
- Evaluate other bug reporting/ticketing systems like osTicket and debbugs (i like bugzilla but some, probably many, people don't)
Application link is not nearly obvious enough on the homepage
- Apparently for email we should have not just SPF but also DKIM (which is way more complicated)
