GSoCIdeas/CloudApps
v1 v2 11 11 This is in some ways the most interesting area for development as it combines security and distributed systems problems with providing a user interface that lets a person who isn't particularly security minded operate safely by default. This is a hard problem, but offers great rewards in terms of learning, and even the ability to break new ground in safe-by-default interface design. 12 12 13 One specific project in this category would be inventing a new secure decentralized wiki as described at [wiki:GSoCIdeas#SecureDecentralizedWiki]. Another would be to extend and improve the current [http://allmydata.org/trac/tiddly_on_tahoe TiddlyWiki-on-Tahoe-LAFS] implementation, which has the disadvantage that it is not built from the ground up to support secure transclusion and mash-ups, but the advantage that it lets you re-use a large library of extensions for [http://www.tiddlywiki.com/ TiddlyWiki]. 14 13 15 Required skills: HTML and !JavaScript for web applications.
