Oh, man! You have absolutely got to try the webdav interface! It lets you use Nautilus or whatever your file 
manager is.a11y is not an issue.

Oh, and incidentally, I think their enterprise paid version of OwnCloud may have a few proprietary 
components.  They probably do that thing where they release the source two or three versions later into 
the community version as they keep improving their paid product.

Well, I did the upgrade and they did make some improvements in the accessibility of their web interface, 
at any rate.  I have not tested uploading files, as I usually just add them from the command line.

The OwnCloud server is currently at version 8.0. The client is at 
version 1.7. I need to update my server, as I believe I'm still

7.0 there, but I have no trouble at all uploading files, even in my 
current version.

Regarding the license of OwnCloud, it is indeed open source, and there 
are no proprietary bits that I have installed, as if they do exist, 
they certainly wouldn't improve its functionality; they would only 
remove my freedoms, which I hold at a fairly high value. I'm happiest 
when the code is in the public domain, and any time I write anything 
at all, I use either the Unlicense[1] or the Creative Commons CC0 
waiver[2]. That said, I will happily use any software as long as it 
has a free/open source license that at least makes the attempt to 
respect my freedom to use, modify and distribute modified or 
unmodified copies of it, and gives me access to the source code if I want it.
