He did die, at age 57.
Just heard it confirmed on the radio as well as online

This is the story they haven't confirmed his death yet. They aren't releasing names until next of kin are notified.
It was Prince, BBC reported that he died some time ago. No idea why CNN held it back.

Trying to figure out why in the world ODfB doesn't let you share a folder out publicly.

You mean to act like an online file share?

Yeah, like ... hey I have these 5 awesome files I want @Dashrender to be able to download. Let me put this whole folder up for him.

Compress it into a Zip system.

I think that the issue is that the way that the links work won't work with a folder. How would the link behave?

Just like it does in OneDrive, or Google Drive, or Sharefile, or really any other product I use.

I've not seen any of those use folders, what do they do with folders when you send someone a link?
-

They look at all the awesome files inside the folder.
For example:
https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=9B7FDCD4D0A877B9!47145&authkey=!AIx3p30InwcAp9Q&ithint=folder%2Cdocx -

It opens straight into his onedrive folder and we can view the files or download them if we want.

Yes, I opened it. It's a web page with links to the individual files. Seems like ODfB could do that too if they wanted, but I wonder if there is something under the hood causing an issue with generating web pages for the collection.

Google Drive does that same thing.
I mean, everything BUT ODfB does it that I use.
I Googled around a bit, there were a lot of SW threads like ... where the heck is the folder sharing?!?!?!
-
Maybe I'll start a thread on this, but how would YOU share a group of files?
Mind you, they might not all be at one place at any given time at the time I want to share them. So, no ability to ZIP them all up at once. Like, I might have thrown stuff into a folder here and there, and then decided to share all that stuff.
OR, perhaps I want a client to be able to browse a list of reports we have done for them. Not just look at a ZIP file.
So, perhaps there is a better way of doing this than I've been thinking.
-
I would dump them into a password protected ownCloud folder and share the link and password with you.

Do you have it set up to allow external sharing?
-
Yeah, everything works as expected except for folders.
