[Pkg-owncloud-maintainers] owncloud-client backport

Hi,

some nippicking:

* add tags if the version is really pushed to the debian repo or released some 
where else. Our approch is to add signed tags after we got the accept from 
Debian queue daemon. 
* only bump changelog entry with one release, so in that case we are creating 
2.0.0+dfsg-1~bpo8+1
* add yourself to uploaders? taffit isn't that needed anyways?

Other than that, if it usable, it looks okay. Me have no stable sbuild here at 
the moment.

regards,

sandro
