These are already included with FreedomBox, I believe:
synapse ejabberd
These are all CalDAV services. Only one of them makes sense to install
(but maybe makes sense to support several of them). Freedom already
include one such service (Radicale):
calendarserver calypso davical sogo
These are both SIP services. Only one of them makes sense to install
(but maybe makes sense to support several of them):
asterisk kamailio
These are all MTAs (i.e. sending email). Only one of them makes sense to
install (but maybe makes sense to support several of them). Should quite
likely be installed only together with some way to avoid spam - either
a) local filtering (ressource heavy!) or b) remote filtering (defeats
FreedomBox aim of moving logfiles to your own physical home) c) or
blocking (then arguably the service is no longer email and alternative
communication protocols might make better sense):
courier-mta exim opensmtpd postfix qmail sendmail
These are all helper tools for an MTA. Should quite likely be installed
only together with an MTA.
maildrop dovecot mailman schleuder sympa imp roundcube rss2email
These all CMSes (content management systems). Likely only one of them
makes sense to install (but maybe makes sense to support several of
them). Should quite likely be installed only together with an MTA (see
above). Only implementations not requiring any console interaction is in
scope for FreedomBox:
wordpress pluxml spip dokuwiki gitit mediawiki
These are both jukebox services. Likely only one of them makes sense to
install (but maybe makes sense to support several of them):
mopidy mpd
These are administration tools, and therefore arguably out of scope of
FreedomBox:
awstats goaccess
These are developer/research/cracking tools, and therefore out of scope
of FreedomBox:
tox medusa postal gist klaus fossil gitlab jenkins trac otrs
These are X11 or console tools, and therefore out of scope for
FreedomBox:
ring triggerhappy weechat pico taskwarrior
This is an education tool, and therefore out of scope of FreedomBox:
moodle
This seem quite out of scope for FreedomBox - or you meant something
else than the package by same name available in Debian, in which case
you should please provide full URL for what you are proposing:
piler
Possibly there are overlap also among the remaining ones:
rss-bridge gnunet mumble syndie znc diaspora isso
cups git-annex samba sparkleshare syncthing unison z-push
transmission coquelicot onionshare guacamole horde
crtmpserver flumotion rygel zoneminder geneweb infinoted
mediagoblin photoshow plumi iodine pound privoxy squid tinyproxy
searx
I dearly suggest to update our wiki page, as Daddy also mentioned.
Posting here on the mailinglist is useful only for loose discussion, but
does not really help for further acting on getting it packaged and
integrated with FreedomBox.
(Sorry, I am writing this from a train with limited internet access, so
cannot locate and provide you the URL - it is somewhere at
https://wiki.debian.org/ :-) )
