And how about the file storage support? Did you choose a platform for it?
It was owncloud, then seafile, because using only chwala on IMAP don't look 
scalable and flexible enough. I tried for a little setup owncloud using webdav 
access, looks nice; owncloud has an odf editor plugin  but i dont like it. So 
the ability to use Collabora will be great.
