I get the idea that someone doesn't want to continue paying those
outrageous fees for the *Teams*, and the company is working not just
with a few gigs, but rather, somewhere upwards of a TB or so.

In that case this would be ideal, and even the usage of OpenStack
storage might be desirable.

Otherwise... yeah, just install miro and pick a mount point, and drag
everything from the Dropbox folder to the OwnCloud sync'd folder on your
workstation, and when you return from lunch it will be done :)

Yeah, try that w/Dropbox ;)
