Hi, me and Atul Jha (koolhead17) have updated the OwnCloud package in Ubuntu.  It's \
looking lovely!

Issues I've found:
 Too hard to make it fit into the FHS as required by most distributions, there should \
be an easy way to move the backup/ config/ and data/ dirs to a different place (/var) \
than the main install (/usr).  Currently I'm using a patch which it's not neat \
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/precise/owncloud/precise/files/head:/debian/patches/


 Too hard to replace the shipped PEAR modules with system ones, I have patched this \
in the past but it's too hard to do so I've given up.

This patch to clairy the icon licence (if correct) would be great
COPYING-README
 -* Silk icons: Creative Commons Attribution 
 +* Silk icons in core/img/filetypes/: Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported \

Lastly the Ubuntu package has not been updated in a while, this is
because of a lack of ownership.  It could be the server team but
they're not too interested (it competes with Canonical's offerings).
It could be the Kubuntu team but alas KDE has been unfriendly enough
that OwnCloud is no longer part of KDE.  If KDE sorts out their "what
is KDE Software" policy and you see fit to come back it would be to
our mutual benefit.

Jonathan
