First of all: Great to see an owncloud project for ubuntu touch. I know that very many people will be looking out for this one.
Except that Owncloud syncs files as well as calendar & contacts. There would need to be some way to choose which folders were going to be synced. I'm guessing this will require some kind of front end. Agreed! For example: a very usefull feature of the android app from owncloud allows instant upload of any pictures and vids you take. True, this is essentially a sync folder too but it will have to be configured somewhere. I can't imagine doing that in any other place than an owncloud app. So -in my mind- equal to the android version, this owncloud client will primarily deal with file sync and exchange.
