I'd love to hear any accounts of this being used in production, issues faced/solved etc.

Ditto. This appears to be unrelated the the csync library from the owncloud folks. I have used Osync for over a year now with great success: https://github.com/deajan/osync.

Yeah it really is unrelated - I knew owncloud uses it, but I didn't know/think it originated there?

Have you used osync for multiple users to a shared server? A lot of sync tools seem great till you want a "star" setup where multiple clients sync against a single central location.

As I understand it csync and unison would both be "safe" in this situation, with the caveat that unison requires the same binary version at both ends, so you'll likely need multiple unison binaries on the server to support different client versions.
