Its a while since I last used Owncoud its possible to collaborate shared 
documents using the webdav interface of owncloud hosted on a NZ webhost 
server such as openhost for $7pm. In Libre select File - Save As - 
Connect to Server |...| select webdav  or use the ooo2gd extension for 
toolbar single click uploads. http://code.google.com/p/ooo2gd/

With a cheap webhost plan iirc openhost provides a shared untrusted 
certificate the first time you upload to webdav you do not have a unique 
trusted signed certificate. If you want a trusted certificate you have 
to buy a certificate approx $70pa or upgrade to a VPS plan which 
provides it.
