I'm not too keen on the fact that AeroFS runs on Java as I would prefer to run Java free systems as much as possible (Go version would be nice =) but am willing to live with it if that's the only option.

We're working on it (a Java-free system, not a Go version, sorry ;) See my response here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5484566 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5484566

  That's still considered Java - even if you're bundling the runtime dependencies within the app...

  Yeah it's still considered Java. While it's been working wonderfully, this still bothers me a little bit. And why not a Go version? Any chance to open the protocol so other people can work on different clients?

Exactly, I removed java from all my computers about week ago. And since I am having my personal debian server, I installed ownCloud 5 on it for filesyncing.. and I am happy so far.. the clients are in C++

  Every single release of OwnCloud includes security fixes. From XSS to SQLi. I have very little confidence in that PHP project from a security point of view.

    You can help them with that, it is opensource.
