[ale] OwnCloud

[Chris Fowler]

I've been playing around with OwnCloud for about 10 hours over the last 2 days. I've looking at it as a backup/offsite solution for some of our files. 

On my desktop I've been testing using inotifywait to sync a directory in home to a webdav share on the OC. I tried mounting the dav share directly in home, but davfs2 is so slow it is unusable. This solution, with unison, allows OC to work a bit like Dropbox. 

Anyone using OC like this? 

My next plane is to use inotifywait on the OC server (Beagle Bone Black) to watch /var/www/owncloud/data/ and then sync that to our backup device outside via Webdav. The chain will be devices to OC then OC to offsite (real Cloud).
