[Owncloud] Movable Apps

[Alessandro Cosentino]

After those changes, I am a bit confused. Jakob and Jan suggested that
I develop the feed reader app in the apps repo, since even core apps
are going to move there. Two questions in particular:

1. should I create a work branch of the apps repo or work in the
master? I would say a work branch is better, since even core apps are
going to move there. At the same time, I see that now all apps are
developed in master (mail app, for instance);

2. locally where should I clone the apps repo? I figure that if I
clone it in the owncloud/app sub-folder, things will get messed up
with the two git configurations.

Thanks,
Alessandro
