Also to toss out more food for thought, Jakarta Slide contains some Ant
tasks to wrap the WebDAV protocol for distributed "file systems". The
long-term vision for Ant should include a way for the <fileset>-like
structures to be pluggable between these different "file systems". Perhaps
we could borrow the ideas already implemented in the NetBeans abstraction,
for example.
