Proof of concept: Nautilus Sharing Tab.
Another proof of concept idea. Windows has a sharing tab that lets
you share files with the Windows Network. Where's the sharing tab in
Linux?
The idea here is to make Linux File Sharing synonymous
with iFolder. So, clearly, when you open the properties of a folder in
Linux, you get a “Sharing” tab. What do you see if it's not already an
iFolder?
Oh, and of course, once you convert it to an iFolder, you can share it to your heart's content. [Boyd's Blog]
