[Owncloud] 3rdparty repository

[Frank Karlitschek]

Hi,

"global" 3rd party libraries should be in 3rdparty, yes.
The exception are things that are very special and only used in one specific app. This can live in the corresponding app folder.

So this case sounds like 3rdparty repo :-)

Now the confusing part is that most 3rdparty JS libraries indeed are in core/js (jQuery, lots of jQuery plugins etc) and not in 3rdparty (only chosen and jQuery UI timepicker really).
