Owncloud[1] can also be seen as a sensible basis for a freedombox web
ui. It already includes UIs for file listing / sharing, calendars,
contacts etc. as well as a (php) micro web framework (MVC, database
abstraction, templating, navigation...) which enables new UIs like the
one we are planning for configuring a wireless router to be created on
top of it.
