there was last week a discussion about this on nautilus-list
(http://mail.gnome.org/archives/nautilus-list/2003-August/msg00072.html)
about this. And, IMO, the only good solution for having a solution for
this ASAP was to use the ~/public_html Apache directory.

The real good solution is to have the user be able to share directories
via the existing protocols, that is SMB and NFS, but since we can't do
it yet...

Maybe other people have other ideas?
