Hi Georg,

When ownCloud is properly integrated, will a proper backup script also
be provided? Currently, there is no backup available for Kolab 3 (as far
as I can see, please correct me if I am wrong). This is sorely needed,
because people are adding their valuable data to Kolab 3 without any
backup security. The ability to backup over the cloud will be great, but
we also need a short term solution in case the ownCloud integration
takes a long time to complete.

Thanks.
