Hi,

some weeks ago I created a Debian package for ownCloud 2 based on the old Ubuntu Package for ownCloud 1.1.
I had no time up to now to take care about packaging ownCloud 3.

What joining your forces to create ONE package, which can be part of Ubuntu as well as Debian (and all other Debian derivatives as well)?

Agree? Ideas? Comment?

THX,

Thomas
