Hello,

I want to warn before anybody proposes to use OwnCloud's syncing
capabilities for Zim. I tried it some time ago with no luck. The problem
was that the OwnCloud Sync Client had a really weird naming scheme for
temporary files and for conflicted files, so whenever any of those
happen to remain in your Zim tree, they create weird index entries, and
even worse, on next sync all of these files will be happily distributed
over all other clients and so forth.

(OwnCloud is in active development, so perhaps I'll give it a try again
and let you know if things changed.)

Regards,
SultansOfSwing.
