- Jamin introduces NextCloud — a brief overview & how it could support P.A.Z.NIA infrastructure
- Matthew: from his experience, NextCloud was missing a Calendy-like function; Dave & Jamin confirm multiple solutions
- Experiences with NextCloud by panel participants?
- My experience with OpenStreetMap and the coming Members-side of the P.A.Z.NIA website
- Jamin: there are two other map programs in NextCloud; other options
- Thomas: what about the security of the map?
- I run through all the security considerations, security culture principles employed, the public/private maps & directories, and why a little risk is necessary if we want this parallel network to develop
- Dave: there’s no limit to how many NextCloud servers can be run, or how many can be connected
- Federation potentialities built into NextCloud
- Dave & StartOS’ experiences working with implementing NextCloud on StartOS
- Matthew: this is an important pilot project that we need to think more about
- Jamin: with an unlimited Calyx Hotspot and a small solar setup, remote NextCloud servers could be put ANYWHERE
- LocalAI on NextCloud & some AI talk
- The P.A.Z.NIA Department of Commerce (a Craigslist-styled Second Realm help wanted/job board)
- Matthew brought up SimpleX as a possibility for help wanted/job board — on second thought, since we want this more public and web-facing, other options need to be explored
- Get involved: add self-sufficient homesteads, guerrilla gardening plots, van nomad squat spots, local health food stores, organic farms, etc. to the P.A.Z.NIA Map & Directory — PAZNIA.COM/JOIN
- Nomads & self-liberators: gain access to the network & P.A.Z.NIA Map & Directory: PAZNIA.COM/JOIN2

I don’t know why anyone would say NextCloud is pseudo-self hosting. I have hosted it on my own machines and also in my Start9 box. Nothing pseudo about that. With Start9 can interact with it via TOR which is pretty sweet. Open Office documents can be used and for groupware work as well. So with a bit of work one of the speakers gave more on it is a Google Doc replacement and then some. Comes close to replacing Google Talk as well. Obsidian notes work well on a Nextcloud notes Files subfolder.
Also Files has a built in player for many types of video files and you can share any file / folder with a group, individual or anyone with the link much like Google Docs, Proton Drive, etc except with no need to download.
