Hi all,
Since we discussed the topic yesterday at the hackatlon - I'll
crosspost to this list.

Hi
As Joern has pointed out during the hackathon today the spec for
the Neutron Sitetree response was missing.
I have added an example
http://neutron.wyona.org/draft-neutron-protocol-v0.html#rfc.section.
5.2
[Neutron specs]
<introspection xmlns="http://www.wyona.org/neutron/1.0";>
<navigation>
<sitetree href="sitetree.xml" method="GET"/>
<--
<sitetree href="/" method="PROPFIND"/>
-->
</navigation>
</introspection>
IIRC Neutron does not require the server to support webDAV. Therefore
the GET method in the above example.
That's a good thing. This way people can do the I/O and sitetree
stuff with http servers that lack webDAV support simply by using
introspection files, GET/PUT or scripted POST'S. They even can use
different transport protocols for doing it - we once agreed that
Neutron should not depend on any given transport protocol, did we?
But why adopt webDAV vocabulary and send a response that (when used
over http) implies that you deal with a webDAV server when in fact
you don't?
Also, is the Neutron variant of a webDAV multipart response bound to
the URI namespace rules the webDAV spec does enforce?
Another question is if webDAV lingo is sufficient for what neutron
clients might want to provide users with. Suppose a client wants to
provide users with a tree view on a Lenya publication like the Lenya
site tab does: i.e. tabs for switching between different language
versions of a site where missing items are replaced by grayed out
placeholders pointing to a default language version. Can you give an
example of how this could be done in a nice way by using webDAV
vocabulary only - or possibly enriched webDAV?
Here's what we use at UZH in our 1.2 publication to spit out sitetree
data. It's rdf that uses the following custom tags:
- map:navigation A navigational structure
- map:node A navigation node
- map:childNodes Child nodes
- map:resources Resources bound to a node (e.g. documents in
various langauges document)
It seems to work for us but has very much room for improvement of
course!
Best Regards
Thomas
