Hi! First of all, it's good to see people pushing owncloud (and synchronization) in general in KDE, I think it's something really needed. Kudos for that! :) Now, I just wanted to say that it doesn't look like something it would be on the system tray... maybe a KCM would be better? Or integrating with Alex's WebAccounts?
