Just an idea: App for geographically tracking your devices, in case they get 
lost/stolen.

An app that can recieve location data in a given interval- like once every 
hour? Not necessarily with your owncloud credentials stored on the phone

There are two parts.
Owncloud:
App where you create a device ID. (write-only authentication for a device)
Continuesly recieve location data. {x-pos,y-pos,precision}
List of devices you are tracking, perhaps with a map for each.

Device application (android/iphone/laptop):
Takes an owncloud url and a device ID.
Contacts owncloud with location data at a given interval/ at certain events.

I like this idea.
I have two other ones as well.

1) It would be nice to have a more advanced apps structure with a package list. -- Users could choose an app via an 'app-store', and it will download and install it self.
-- Individual apps can be updated via the 'app-store'.
-- Users can upload their own apps to their owncloud instance (this can open a lot of security issues).

2) Better urls, i.e. have a routing structure for urls.
-- get rid of the .php extension for urls
-- register php functions or files with urls so that not every php file is accessible from the web.

Idea 1) would open up a lot of possibilities and cut back on the feature creep of the owncloud core.

Roland

Hello!

This is a friendly reminder that the GSoC mentoring organization
application period closes in a week. I see that many of you have added
lots of interesting ideas but there are still empty spots in that wiki
page so I'm confident that we can do even better!

If any of you still have ideas for this year's GSoC please add them to
the wiki page [1] as soon as possible and before March 9.

Cheers,
