There is a lot of web applications in apt repositories. They are nice but they use different server side languages, they got different look and feel etc.

I think that we could develop a bunch of web applications that could allow to admin Ubuntu based system (like webmin) could provide various informations about system (like webalizer), allow to manage some services and servers running on Ubuntu box - such as mysql (phpmyadmin), apache, samba, mldonkey (mldonkey-server) etc.

We could provide simple and consistent GUI that could allow to manage Ubuntu box via web browser.

Summary

There is a lot of web applications in apt repositories. They are nice but they use different server side languages, they got different look and feel etc.

I think that we could develop a bunch of web applications that could allow to admin Ubuntu based system (like webmin) could provide various informations about system (like webalizer), allow to manage some services and servers running on Ubuntu box - such as mysql (phpmyadmin), apache, samba, mldonkey (mldonkey-server) etc.

We could provide simple and consistent GUI that could allow to manage Ubuntu box via web browser.

Rationale

It could allow to manage networked Ubuntu workstations and servers without need to learn CLI. It could be much easier for users to log into some web based admin panel and then use and manage their Ubuntu system.

Use cases

Scope

Design

Ajax based rich and dynamic web applications that could show potential of gecko engine.

Implementation

webuntu core package with basic infrastructure and a bunch of modules specialized to specific requirements.

Code

we need to write code from scratch using PHP or Python as server side and Javascript, xHtml, Css, XML, XSLT on client side.

Data preservation and migration

Outstanding issues

We need to be _very_ carefull about security.
