This would actually only take 10 minutes to do with the current implementation
of shared links. So, not exactly worthy of a GSoC project and I don't believe
it aligns well with the goal of ownCloud. A user of ownCloud should have no
problem hosting their own static website if they are hosting ownCloud on their
own server.
Keep thinking of ideas.

Hi list,
This is a mail i have sent to organizer of gsoc for
owncloud(zynga12) and he advised me to send it to the ML and
wait for the response of the developers.
I have been interested in Open source software for a very long
time now I always i wanted to contribute to opensource but
never knew how to do it.
I am also following Gsoc for a long time now and have know that
it is a very good medium to contribute to Open source
community.
I was very excited when i first came across Owncloud as its
open source and its code is available , I have spent some time
looking at it.
I was searching for possible ideas for Owncloud when i got this idea.
=========================== PROPOSAL ===========================
My proposal for OwnCloud software is the integration of a
webhost(static pages)
How this will works
First create a folder with public access.
Copy all your code(static pages with directories) into that folder.
Then a pemalink is generated to the index.html
That permalink can be used to share the link on web
Anyone using the link can access the webpage.
Implementation details for this.
Basically we provide the HTML( stored in the shared folder )
from the shared directory.
The shared directory contains all the code.
Code is transferred as per required to the user using the
webpage in the browser.
a similar implementation.
I got inspiration for this idea from Google Drive. Google
recently came out with a feature similar to this. I find it cool
and i see no other opensource cloud file sharing application
where i could have proposed it, I think with this feature
OwnCloud will be more interesting and fun to use.
This is how it would look like.
Looking forward to your replies.
