Seems like more of the world is finding ways to escape tech giants.

@AartJansen it's an EU fork of OnlyOffice (which is Russian)

[nebulon]

I think you mean https://github.com/Euro-Office/

Seems like there is little info on office.eu where they are coming from, but judging from the screenshots that one is collabora office in a nextcloud without branding

[jdaviescoates]

@nebulon ah yes, that is the one I meant, I just falsely assumed this was the same thing.

But yeah, looking more closely in their FAQs office.eu says it's based on Nextcloud Hub

[AartJansen]

@nebulon Yeah, I got that wrong. pretty similar names & product.

@nebulon Now that Euro-Office has been released is there, any plan to integrate Euro-Office as part of the official Cloudron apps in the same way as Collabora or ONLYOFFICE?

Yes. technically (and the Latvian company appears to be ultimately owned in Singapore). But as I understand it, it originated in Russia and is still overwhelmingly developed by Russian developers working with Russian time zones and commenting in Russian.

@giofonseca yes we will also provide that eventually, currently both are really the same thing so there is no rush. Lets wait a bit for the dust to settle and see the direction of the euro office. But it very much seems like the way forward if those other contributing organisations stay behind it.
