Description Matthew Miller 2007-04-09 15:37:02 UTC
From the spec file:

  %description
  GNOME user file sharing.

O RLY? That's so helpful!

How about, instead, some subset of the README:

  gnome-user-share is a small package that binds together various free
  software projects to bring easy to use user-level file sharing to the
  masses.

  The program is meant to run in the background when the user is logged
  in, and when file sharing is enabled a webdav server is started that
  shares the $HOME/Public folder. The share is then published to all
  computers on the local network using mDNS/rendezvous, so that it shows
  up in the Network location in Gnome.

  The dav server used is apache, so you need that installed. Howl is
  used for mDNS support, so you need to have that installed and
  mDNSResolver running.

Except that last paragraph brings up another point, which I will file in another
bug.

Thats easy enough. Better description has been committed to cvs, will be in the
next build.
