Yes indeed. The CMIS interface also gives you access to a number of
services, many of them not consumer-oriented but rather corporate
(Nuxeo, SharePoint, Tybco, Alfesco and other CMSes).

Actually aside knowing some people at OwnCloud and them knowing some of
us here, there's no connection. We do use OwnCloud, let them know about
it, but we use it because it works :-)

Actually everything's that is accessible on OwnCloud, everything you
see, is available for anyone to download. take a look here:
https://owncloud.documentfoundation.org/Common

What you have to do is to ask for credentials to *upload* files.
However, unless I misunderstood Custfold's comment, it's worth noting
that you cannot use the Document Foundation's OwnCloud server for your
personal purposes (uploading music, etc.)

You may however have a look at OwnCloud providers here: 
http://www.owncloud.com
http://owncube.com
and perhaps install it yourself: 
http://www.owncloud.org

Not at all.

It'll all be updated with the brand new website in a few days.

Best,
