[Rodrigo Belem]

Blueprint changed by Rodrigo Belem:

Whiteboard changed:
  Work Items:
- [kubuntu-members] Redo property UI: TODO
+ [kubuntu-members] Redo property UI: INPROGRESS
  [kubuntu-members] Redo filehsaring KCM: TODO
  [kubuntu-members] Make fileshare types plugins to the KCM: TODO
  [kubuntu-members] Add WebDav support (see gnome-user-share): TODO
  [kubuntu-members] Add Netatalk support: TODO
  [echidnaman] Change new filesharing magic from PK to QApt (for defaults spec): DONE
  
  User Interface:
      * Property UI
          * Refresh samba property UI after install samba.
          * After applying the change to the share, the files under the shared directory needs to have their permission updated.
          * Create a dialog to show the status and failures of permission update.
          * Think in a layout to display multiple protocols.
              * Dialogues within dialogues not ideal.
              * Aurelien Gateau recommends listview tabs at the side for each protocol.
  
      * KCM FIlesharing
          * Create the main UI.
          * Create a plugin for each fileshare protocol.
              * Samba
              * Bluetooth - move from bluetooth kcm
              * WebDav
              * Netatalk
  
  WebDav
      * apache2 mod dnssd - follow gnome-user-share methods of sharing
  
  Netatalk
      * It supports AFP 3.3(!) (Time Machine, Air Play etc.)  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Filing_Protocol
  
  Miscellaneous
      * File properties "Preview" tab seems pretty broken
  
  # Future stuff
  * http server:
        * qtwebapp http://stefanfrings.de/qtwebapp/index.html
        * http://doc.qt.nokia.com/solutions/4/qtservice/qtservice-example-server.html
        * libkdnssd4 for network announce
