Well, that page is not really specific. It just says the web browser  
will be used to load content. Fine, I added the ability to launch  
etoys projects directly from the web activity. But where do I need to  
put user-created files so that they show up in the web browser? A  
subdirectory named "MyEtoys" of the home directory maybe? Currently  
they are stored in ~/.sugar/<profile>/etoys/MyEtoys, will that show  
up in the webbrowser? Is there a way to test this? I can easily setup  
an rsync server here, but what server software will be running?
