version.php now contains the previous ownCloud version from which
upgrades are allowed. Any other upgrades will show a message that the
upgrade/downgrade is not supported.
Beside some small improvements and bug fixes this will probably the final state for OC8.
To test this you need to set up two ownCloud instances. Let's say:
URL: myPC/firstOwnCloud user: user1
URL: myPC/secondOwnCloud user: user2
Now user1 can share a file with user2 by entering the username and the URL to the second ownCloud to the share-drop-down, in this case "user2@myPC/secondOwnCloud".
The next time user2 login he will get a notification that he received a server-to-server share with the option to accept/decline it. If he accept it the share will be mounted. In both cases a event will be send back to user1 and add a notification to the activity stream that the share was accepted/declined.
If user1 decides to unshare the file again from user2 the share will automatically be removed from the second ownCloud server and user2 will see a notification in his activity stream that user1@myPC/firstOwnCloud has unshared the file/folder from him.
