[Owncloud] ownCloud packaging

[Norman Rieß]

Hello Klaas,

is there any information on how to subscribe to packaging at owncloud.org?
Sending email to packaging+subscribe at owncloud.org or subject subscribe
did not seem to work.
I did not find information on owncloud.org either.

Thanks.

Regards,
Norman
