For realtime editing you could just use <a href="http://libredocs.org">libredocs.org</a> (hosted node.js backend with some nice and developing capabilites) and use your owncloud storage as storage backend.<br>Your data, minimal setup, great realtime editing etherpad style.<br>
As was already said, don't reinvent the wheel.<br><br>As for the Realtime backend. That's not the goal.<br>Owncloud should be the storage backend. The realtime communication should be separated from the storage.<br>
But you can take a closer look at remoteStorage.org for that.<br><br>Michael<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Apr 4, 2012 at 5:21 PM, Bartek Przybylski <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:bart.p.pl@gmail.com">bart.p.pl@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
