[Owncloud] ownCloud/openSUSE collaboration for GSoC 2013

[Jörn Friedrich Dreyer]

Just to pour in some ideas: I hacked on a prototype that acts as a proxy
to openstreetmap but never finished it. A good starting point was
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/ProxySimplePHP which fetches
necessary tiles on the fly with curl and provides  minimal OpenLayers
code - the js part to render the map. The working example can be found
at http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenLayers. For the search box you
can use Nominatim as a web service: see the Examples on
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim
