[Owncloud] how-to compile owncloud client on Windows

[Luke Owncloud]

Hi Antonio,

I don't think anybody has natively compiled ownCloud for Windows.
Here you find instructions how to cross-compile it running Linux:

http://daniel.molkentin.de/occ/building.html#windows-cross-compile

http://dragotin.wordpress.com/2012/03/22/csync-and-mirall-development-setup/


Further, it tried to compile it using Cygwin. I attached the script 
which does the job. However, it is of not much use, because it compiles 
the owncloud client for the Cygwin X interface.

Cheers,
Luke
