Don't know how you would share links but here's how to get to the interface:

From nautilus hit f10 to access the menu bar.  Go to file and then location or, I think it says new 
location.  Then, type the following suitably modified to your setup:

dav://yourdomain.com/owncloud/remote.php/webdav

If you have ssl enabled, it's davs not dav at the beginning of the url.  You'll be prompted for your username 
and password and then, you are in.  It works just like dropbox or any other directory.  Try the menu key or a 
right click to see what options you get.  Shahring a link might be one of them, who knows?

But can you share links to a file from that interface?  How would I get to that interface?

Oh, and incidentally, I think their enterprise paid version of OwnCloud may have a few proprietary 
components.  They probably do that thing where they release the source two or three versions later into 
the community version as they keep improving their paid product.

Well, I did the upgrade and they did make some improvements in the accessibility of their web interface, 
at any rate.  I have not tested uploading files, as I usually just add them from the command line.

The OwnCloud server is currently at version 8.0. The client is at

7.0 there, but I have no trouble at all uploading files, even in 
my current version.

Regarding the license of OwnCloud, it is indeed open source, and 
there are no proprietary bits that I have installed, as if they do 
exist, they certainly wouldn't improve its functionality; they 
would only remove my freedoms, which I hold at a fairly high 
value. I'm happiest when the code is in the public domain, and any 
time I write anything at all, I use either the Unlicense[1] or the 
Creative Commons CC0 waiver[2]. That said, I will happily use any 
software as long as it has a free/open source license that at 
least makes the attempt to respect my freedom to use, modify and 
distribute modified or unmodified copies of it, and gives me access to the source code if I want it.
