Hi,

today I got the information, that FreeBSD has a working port for owncloud-
client:
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/deskutils/mirall/

I really don't understand, why they haven't the problems with FolderWatcher :D 
But well I'll add the patches in the next round. Tomorrow oCC 1.4.2 will be 
released. 

Regards,

sandro
