[Owncloud] tasks for Google Code-in needed

[Frank Karlitschek]

Hi everybody,

we have one day left to collect the Code-in tasks.

We still need 2 mentors for the described tasks in Jans email.

And we also have the opportunity to come up with more tasks.
But only if we have mentors for it of course. :-)


Cheers
Frank
