Did reconsider. Same conclusion as before.

Sorry.

a number of projects I've seen are up and coming have most of this planned or being built

Competition is good thing.

Would you mind sharing the names or links to these projects ?

Months. Lots of.

(I have other matters to finish before being able to allocate the time Ubooquity development requires).

A future version will add user defined sections. So you'll be able to have different sections based on the folder your documents are in.

When I test this scenario (HTTPS + reverse proxy option + bypass single folder), I get redirected to a HTTPS address, not a HTTP one.

The test I did was without a proxy server in front of Ubooquity though: local instance, local browser.

Are you sure the issue is not with the proxy itself ?

I don't know what I could change in Ubooquity code to improve the situation.

I checked my code: I don't specify the protocol when performing the redirection.

Could it be an nginx issue ? Google seems to return quite a few results when asked about redirection (http 302), nginx and https.

Yes, still no. :)

Ubooquity is a hobby where I can code what I want, when I want.

Open sourcing it would mean reviewing and merging pull requests, discussing features, kind of managing people... A bit too close to what I already do for a living.

And that's without talking about the loss of control over the code, perhaps having concurrent forks...

In a word, it would remove most of the fun out of the project for me.

What I'm trying to do though, is to find and implement ways to make Ubooquity more extensible (at the moment by implementing full html theming), so that people can adapt it to their preferences.

You're right, the script on the site is completely obsolete !

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll include them (without "-Djava.awt.headless=true" as it is redundant with "--headless").

It does help.

(and Ubooquity is still worked on, although even more slowly than before)

I do not have an up-to-date iPad, so I won't be able to test in the event that I implement something, but I'll take a look at your link nevertheless.
