I think I see where the disconnect is. I'm assuming that it would be possible to do something like, allow sharees to access shares with just a plain English URL osaf.us/bcm/calendar/read-write But we wouldn't want to do this, because this is just way too easy to guess.
heh, right.
But from your perspective, this would be a public share? and not something we support today, correct?
yes.
(I can see how from an implementation perspective, there is a clear divide between this and an URL with an embedded ticket. However, from the user's perspective, it's more a matter of degree. An URL with an embedded ticket is just the same as a public URL that's harder to guess.
point taken.
The extra layer of security we're offering here...is a security measure (password) that is de-coupled from the link you click on to access the share.
yeah, ok, i'm fine with the proposal now. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Open Source Applications Foundation "Design" mailing list http://lists.osafoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/design
