What's coming in 6.1

[girish]

Given holiday time and end of the year, not sure we are going to be all that productive We have a bunch of apps which are already good to go, so we will get those out first before 6.1.

6.1 is mostly implementing some low hanging fruit. Idea is to get it out end of this or first week of Jan, so not much is planned.

• Token based login for the dashboard. This will allow service providers to have a clickable link using which one can auto-login to the Cloudron dashboard.
• Add a way to secure the cloudron-setup with a token
• Remember app update notification status across restarts
• proxyAuth: add 2fa
• Include alias in mailbox search
• turn server: support REST API for auth credentials
• Add well-known support in Domains view. This is essentially trying to automate the matrix well-known setup. It seems many people struggle with the SSH instructions.

Guilty as charged!

An update on this. The following are already implemented:

• Token based login for the dashboard. This will allow service providers to have a clickable link using which one can auto-login to the Cloudron dashboard. (cc @MooCloud_Matt )
• cloudron-setup script now has a --generate-setup-token argument. With this the install/restore routes are protected with a token.
  proxyAuth apps now support 2FA
• App update notification status is also remembered across restarts.

In progress:

• Add well-known UI to domains view. The backend logic is already implemented.

With 6.1 coming out soon, it would be great to be able to include more languages. Currently we already received a lot of work done in Dutch and Chinese and we will include those for sure. Shout out to @imc67 and fengchang for that effort.

You can check the current state of translation at https://translate.cloudron.io/projects/cloudron/dashboard/

Please raise your hand if you want to contribute to one of them, we need your language skills For furthering inclusion of people, not fluent in English, I think we should ship with any language being more than 50% translated. Looks like Italian and Vietnamese are on its way already.

Does translation require login?

[nebulon]

@p44 Yes currently we have disabled anonymous translation or suggestion and public registration to prevent spam. However if you want to contribute just send us a mail to support@cloudron.io with your intended username and the language you want to help out.

[p44]

@nebulon That's why "Save" button was disabled. I'll send an email to support.

Include alias in mailbox search

Does this include domain aliases in an app setting's Location UI since I seem to remember these two features connecting in the Domain Alias thread?

[girish]

@lonk No, that task is just about searching for mailbox alias names when doing search in the mailbox UI.

[girish]

Looks like this release is mostly done.

@doodlemania2 Which app required turn server REST API support? That's the main task not implemented.

@girish Nextcloud High Performance Backend https://forum.cloudron.io/post/18253

[doodlemania2]

@girish It's been a bit since I peaked at it, but if I recall, there are three main components to the High Performance Backend and two of those components wanted a TURN API. Hopefully/maybe (hehe), I documented it.
