https://gitorious.org/owncloud https://gitorious.org/owncloud ownCloud began at a KDE community event in 2010, aiming to bring greater flexibility, access and security to data in the cloud. ownCloud enables universal access to files through the widely implemented WebDAV standard, providing a platform to easily view and sync contacts, calendars and bookmarks across devices while supporting sharing, viewing and editing via the web interface. Installation has minimal server requirements, doesn’t need special permissions and is quick. ownCloud is extendable via a simple, powerful API for applications. With more than 450,000 users, ownCloud offers the ease-of-use of Dropbox with more flexibility and security. ownCloud users can run their own file sync and share services on their own hardware and storage, use popular public hosting and storage offerings, or both. Other major improvements: - Drag & Drop File Uploading – Enables end users to upload a file from a browser without installing a client. Simply open a browser, log in and then drag from the desktop into the ownCloud window. - Shared Calendars and Calendar categories – End users can sync their own calendar, but also share their calendar with others, enabling them to see and schedule appointments while looking at the user’s schedule. - File Encryption – new server side encryption increases file security while at rest – not even server admins can look at these encrypted files while they reside on the server. - ownCloud 4 also adds a to-do syncing plug-in, improved contacts and groups, improved file sharing, enhanced the photo gallery, improved system performance, easier installation of third party plug-ins and more.
