Hi,
I proposed this to Priyanka as a GSoC project.
How could this work? Well, first we have the storage. This is simply an
implementation of the server specs written down at [1]. Not very
creative but it is easy to measure the success of the project.
The second part is the usage of the data. IMHO only the bookmarks are
interesting. As Robin said, the data is encrypted, but if I'm not
mistaken the encryption is using a symmetric-key algorithm and the key
is known by the user! So we provide an option for the user saying "if
you provide the key you could use the bookmarks in owncloud". I think
that's fine for both people who just want to sync their data and for
those who want to _use_ their data.
Regards,
Jakob

im not familiar with bookmark sync services. so i cant say if one is
better.
but firefox sync seems the way to go. that way if we develop a
chrome plugin
it will work with ff sync too :D
The "problem" with ff sync is that it is, from what I understood of
it, client
side encrypted, while this is great from a security/privacy pov, it
means that
ownCloud won't be able to access the bookmarks.
