Michiel, Exciting to see the progress! A couple points...
- add in the OAuth dialog in the setup process Look at the Dropbox flow as it has an oauth step in there. It might be messy to include this in the setup controller since it wasn't planned to handle this but once it's working it's easy to refactor. - not only push to remote storage but also pull from there if updates happen That's an awesome feature. The way we've typically handled this type of "extra" functionality is by having a separate repository for it instead of building in "polling" scripts into the frontend repository. Thoughts? - make OpenPhoto serve the photos directly from remote instead of from local fs Are you sure you want to do this? I only ask because OpenPhoto generates N number of lower resolution photos for viewing on the web and mobile devices. Do users really want all these copies in their remote storage? I see these low resolution version files as simply for the sake of working on the web but otherwise provide no additional value to the user. Also, since they are low resolution they don't take up much space at all (so the local FS doesn't need to be huge). My perspective is that the originals are what need to remain in the user's control...especially considering the low res photos can be reproduced easily. - get rid of local file system dependency See above.
