+Open-Source Webmail Roundcube Joins Nextcloud
+======
+Roundcube is teaming up with Nextcloud for its future.
+Roundcube, one of the [best open source web-based email clients][1] around, has decided to team up with [Nextcloud][2], a popular open-source collaboration platform that is known for its suite of collaboration tools.
+
+This move comes in at a time when **the importance of emails is just growing** , and the likes of Google and Microsoft are trying to corner the market.
+
+Allow me to take you through this.
+
+### A New Home for Roundcube
+
+![][3]
+
+That is what the CEO of Nextcloud, Frank Karlitschek, mentions this move to be:
+
+> Going forward, **Nextcloud will be providing the necessary resources** such as **hosting the project** , **investments for procuring talent** , **helping development** , and **fostering a community** around Roundcube.
+
+And most importantly, [**Roundcube**][4] **will not be replacing** [**Nextcloud Mail**][5]; both of them will exist as separate webmail solutions.
+
+Frank has emphasized that Roundcube is an important open-source project used by many, and Nextcloud Mail is “ _a powerful client in its own right_ ”, but there are no plans to merge them.
+
+You might be wondering; **why is this change happening?**
+
+Well, the founder and maintainer of Roundcube, Thomas Brüderli, **had to step down**. When asked why, he said that:
+
+> With the birth of our kids my focus how to spend my off-work time clearly moved towards family life and thus I gradually stopped contributing and I lost track of what’s happening in the project.
+>
+> The Roundcube project deserves a better and a more committed lead and therefore it‘s time for me to step back and let go.
+
+This is something many out there can relate to, it is good to see that Thomas handed his precious project over to someone who can keep it going.
+
+I must say, **I was surprised to hear about this** , having used Roundcube as my webmail of choice at workplace, I have seen how it has evolved since 2018.
+
+I am glad that this project is getting the attention and care it deserves.
+
+Furthermore, I suggest you go through the [official blog][6], and the interview linked there, for more insights on this merge.
+
+_💬 What do you think? How will this work out?_
