So I started >> looking @ opensource implementations of Java WebDAV clients and came across Apache SLIDE Server and Client. Unfortunately Slide has been discontinued. There is not that it was replaced by Apache JackRabbit, but from what I can see JackRabbit is a Server implementationof WebDAV technologies. I was also searching for Java MAPI support, but a lot of the MAPI APIs for Java are closed-source and licensed... which is not good IMHO. What other options for exchange support do people see? Do you think it is a worthwhile pursuit? Do you think it will happen and will it be a paid-for product on AndroidMarket, or will someone make an open-source client? There is a lot of reading to be done on WebDAV and how it integrates into Exchange... so I am going to start doing some reading.Feel free to share your ideas and thoughts. >> > > > >
