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.  * Jitsi Meet support
 * ActivityPub-based libre social networking system (e.g., Mastodon, Pleroma/Akkoma, misskey, etc.; there are other AP-based services like bookwyrm,
 * 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
 * ''in progress:'' Implement client-side HCoop integration under Guix System (openafs service, etc.)
 * Help resolve the WikiReplacement2021 situation
 * Automagic LetsEncrypt integration: ideally make it entirely automatic and enabled by default
Line 12: Line 18:
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.

Provide more VCS web interfaces: eventually we should have some subset of darcshub, darcsweb, hgweb, gitorious, cgit, extended gitweb, maybe even Sourceforge or Savane (or, as of 2016, Gitlab/Kallithea/gogs/...)

Fix moinmoin headings somehow. Many pages use H1 for section titles which makes the outline (in the html5 sense) nonsensical and contradicts w3c recommendations

Fix defaults that lead to serving the same resource from multiple URIs. In particular, don't serve files from `public_html` from domains by default, and use permanent redirects from the `www` subdomain to the bare domain name or vice versa

Poll members about what they would like to do with free social networking services (e.g., ostatus, mediagoblin); what approaches they would prefer for vanity domains vs. central installations; use by non-members (e.g. will their friends want to use their installations, would their friends join hcoop, etc.); semi-managed installations vs. manual individual administration; ...

Implement portal redesign: http://hcoop.net/~bpt/tmp/portal.html

Find out whether we can accept copyright assignments

Pass [[https://lists.hcoop.net/pipermail/hcoop-misc/2008-February/000082.html|ntk's anti-FISA policy]]

Moniker TODOs: Keep changes in version control. Reduce wasted white space at top of page. Center HCoop logo.

Policy/guideline ideas:

Licensing policy: (A)GPLv3-compatible for software, the usual free content licenses for other things? We may want an exception for logos, or just protect them as trademarks like Debian does. The content license(s) should be GPL-compatible since we probably have some "content" that is GPL, like domtool docstrings. (CC-BY-SA 4.0 is one-way compatible with GPLv3.) Relicensing the wiki may be difficult, but there are probably not many (15, 20?) contributors of substantial amounts of currently-relevant text, excluding homepages.

Internal writing guidelines: use gender-inclusive language; promote only FreeSoftware officially, and ask that people consider FreeSoftware principles and the SevenPrinciples when officially recommending a service or organization; write "GNU/Linux" instead of "Linux" when referring to the entire OS

[[https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/web/TLSSuicideAndUserCGIs|One good reason not to allow .htaccess:]] it's apparently difficult to control which HTTP headers can be set by users
 * 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
 * Kerberos 2FA support?
 * Single sign-on for hcoop.net services? (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 (the latter is used for both Debian and GNU packages)
 * 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)
 * Review [[https://pad.drutopia.org/p/libresaas|LibreSaaS list]]
 * Debug wiki list CSS: links in items cause additional whitespace
