Super User IIThis isnt exactly new news I'm afraid.
And it was replaced a LONG LONG time ago by shared links which are pretty much Public Links BUT allowed in any location within your Dropbox: www.dropbox.com/help/167 (as per the link in the email)
Edit: apologies I have received my email now. I believed initially this was a change to the way HTML files were rendered not that they were going completely.
Can we not just move the shared files/folders to a new location outside Public?

"Previously, if you renamed or moved a file or folder, any shared links to them would "break." This means that anyone clicking the links would see an error message. Now, you can reorganize and rename files and folders in your Dropbox without impacting any shared links to them."
