Yes, I believe so. Others may share other files and folders, but we don't have a generic method of providing pretty urls for any arbitrary hash. Of course, pretty much all content will live under the SHARED folder, so it does cover most use cases. Couple of notes: - If the hash changes (e.g. a new install, etc..) it'd have to be updated There might be a way of making a plugin/extension that just provides a read-only link to a SHARED/ folder (a bit cleaner, but would probably require a bit of code to be written). - Ordinary users can provide anonymous upload rights via a link I don't think this is generally a problem, especially if it's just upload to a particular folder and not edit/delete rights, but it's something we should test out. - Sharing a pretty URL could be easier If one navigates to a folder under SHARED like QA/BSA, there are options to share a link, but those options are designed for compartmentalization and allowing narrow access -- great things for personal data, but not what we want here :-) What one can do is take a URL like: https://owncloud.documentfoundation.org/index.php/apps/files?dir=/SHARED/QA/BSA and change it manually to: https://owncloud.documentfoundation.org/shared/QA/BSA The easiest fix would probably be to add a new link "Public URL" to the file/folder-level options (currently: Rename, Download, Versions, Share) that would properly-format a publicly-accessible url.
