Well, the next line says "served up over the web, or saved to a
mounted filesystem"

My weak knowledge of English still tells me that "served" means that
the files are "made available" and not "sent".

Anyway, such change will have to wait post-wheezy if someone feels
like making the description easier to understand. I think that anyway,
what should be changed are not the option names (which will also
require code changes) but more having a more detailed long description
about what each option is doing.
