ownCloud 7 Community Edition Hot Feature: Turning Private Clouds into Public Clouds

We launched ownCloud 7 Community Edition Beta last week and between now and the release of GA a few weeks from now, we're going to be blogging on our community site about the important new features.

We launched ownCloud 7 Community Edition Beta last week and between now and the release of GA a few weeks from now, we’re going to be blogging on our community site about the important new features.

We started off today with Server-to-Server sharing. You can read more here, but I wanted to repeat here just how important this capability is.

Server-to-Server sharing — in so many words — allows Private Clouds to act like Public Clouds, but maintaining the control, privacy and security of Private Clouds. In a nutshell, S2S sharing allows admins using ownCloud to pair up separate instances so sharing is as easy (but still very highly managed) between instances as within one.

Again — more here, and watch this space for details on more features.

Two codebases just became one. The ownCloud Web frontend now lives inside owncloud/ocis under web/, all under Apache-2.0. One repository, one licence, one CI pipeline, one contribution surface. Years of contribution history preserved, everything moved into a single home. This is what the OSPO relicensing programme looks like when it reaches the core product.

Alt Text for Every Image. No Manual Work. No Excuses.

Missing alt text is one of the most commonly flagged WCAG failures. EN 301 549 mandates it for public sector ICT across Europe. As of today, oCIS ships an extension that generates a credible first draft with your configured vision LLM, lets the user edit it, and writes it back to the file as a WebDAV property that survives the session. A meaningful compliance tool, not just a convenience feature.
