OF has a very sophisticated custom sync mechanism that was designed to sit on a dumb file system (local or remote, like WebDAV). The only time I've ever had problems with it is when I've had iDisk syncing turned on and the two sync mechanisms fight.

I don't know enough about iCloud internals to know if a complete redesign would be required to make OF use it, but I wouldn't be surprised - and then that solution would ONLY work with iCloud or Omni would have to support two sync schemes.

It's a shame (and quite strange) that apple aren't keeping a straight forward WebDAV service as part of iCloud - but the Omni one works well and is free for now.
