No. Just as "personal web sharing" tools everyone's excited about, Vino
is "personal destop sharing" tool. It lets user easily set things up so
that he can show his desktop to others. Being a server is purely
technical detail, and uninteresting to user, as opposed to, say, jabber
server, which by nature serves many users and its being a server is main
feature.
