FLOSS alternative to Dropbox – GNOM E + KDE collaboration?

There seems to be a real need for a FLOSS alternative to Dropbox in
both GNOME and KDE. Google Summer of Code is approaching and both DEs
have a collaboration tool on their list.

GNOME has ideas for the front-end:

(Collaboration server/client)
KDE focuses more on the back-end:

To have a DE-independent alternative to Dropbox (and Ubuntu One for
that matter …), wouldn’t it be great to collaborate on that project? I
didn’t know if either idea knew about the other, so here’s the update.
