Hi Jeff!

The WebDAV protocol does not contain any support for creating users. However
Slide does have a way of solving this - if you use mkcol in you users
collection, slide will automatically add DAV:principal element to the
DAV:resourcetype property!

Adding users to groups can be done using proppatch to set content of
DAV:group-member-set.

If you want to be these user to handle passwords too, the you have to user
the SlideRealm in you tomcat server.xml
