So, around the end of 2019, we tried to map out a few core principles of a system which might work a lot like Cloudron, but give us more guarantees that we can depend on. We started calling the new project Co-op Cloud. Here are some of the principles we identified:
- Co-op Cloud should always be available under [copyleft licenses] to retain the shared work as part of the [commons](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commons). We shouldn't rely on creating [artificial scarcity](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_scarcity) as a business model.

- Co-op Cloud aims to work with existing free software communities who are already packaging and publishing their software (Nextcloud, Gitea, Mediawiki, Rocket.chat, the list goes on and on...). We want to be involved in their community spaces and build bridges between infrastructure, software development and end-users.

In our spare time (partly funded by income from working for our wonderful clients 😀) we've been putting the pieces together; and after a year of work (including two "back to the drawing board" moments), we're ready to launch an [alpha version](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle) of Co-op Cloud to the public.
