---------------------------------
Hi [~reschke],
I recall somethings on why/how commons-vfs2 relies on the standalone-components
(not standalone itself).
As described in JCR-4401 (and discussed [1]), Jackrabbit has split the old
standalone module into two: standalone (a demo) and standalone-components (a
library). To help commons-vfs2 be able to verify its VFS2 over WebDAV, we moved
some public classes originally in the demo project to the library project, at
least for commons-vfs2 as of JCR-4401.
I'm not sure if it is feasible to bring it back easily, but it would be great
to see commons-VFS2 being verified with JR webdav server.
