Hi again everyone,
I've created two projects and a team:
Online account plugin: https://launchpad.net/account-plugin-owncloud
ownCloud App: https://launchpad.net/owncloud-app
Team: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-owncloud
<https://launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-owncloud>
This is how I think this could be done, and please feel free to come
forward if you have any ideas to make it better:
1. We create a online account plugin that handles the authentication,
just like the one for Google, which manages the set up of the
synchronization of both CalDAV and CardDAV (calendar and contacts).
The code for this should be in [1].
This should be our first priority.
2. We create an app, that’s more like an UI for the owncloudcmd
binary, which we possibly could ship in an .click package(?). This app
pretty much just uses the online account to login and then has
settings to sync files, but most of all gives the user the possibility
to browse ones files in ownCloud, just like UDropCabin [2].
So: We need to know how, more specifiaclly, the Google sync is set up
and use that for ownCloud, then see if we could ship a binary in a
click package that we somehow could make use of. Perhaps the online
account plugin can create the necessary config files since QML doesn't
handle files, and owncloudcmd needs it, correct?
For the file browsing, perhaps we could make use of owncloud-qml [3]
or meedav [4]?
Please give me some feedback and apply for the team if you are willing
to lend a hand - I'm not really sure how to do all this :P

Hmm ok... So it seems that in cases where you really just
install a binary
(e.g. copying it to/usr/bin/) this is actually a viable option
and won't
break on OTA updates? That's great to know. I was always
worried that any
modification in rw mode would very likely cause future OTA
upgrades to fail
and leave you with a broken system.
IIUC this only works for *delta* OTA upgrades. If you don't
upgrade often enough or change channels, the whole image will be
replaced and all changes lost.
The other point is that even with deltas there's a chance of
breakage if you replace a file that won't get then replaced back
by deltas and things go out of sync.
