gnome-user-share: and now?

[Murray Cumming <murrayc murrayc com>]

So, during 2.9/2.10, gnome-user-share was not accepted as a new module
[1], because there was a lack of consensus. It allowed users to share
their files with other users on the network, via the webdav protocol
(using apache).

As far as I remember, we didn't get consensus because some people
thought it would be better to explicitly send files (or the means to get
them) to individual people rather than to just share them to all. This
has always seemed more complicated to me, and anyway, we don't have
either in GNOME at the moment.

So, has anyone changed their opinion? Does this simple solution seem
acceptable now?
