Why on earth WebDAV? Incidentally, I had an almost-finished  
incremental backup according to this spec:

<http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_backup_restore>

and then got pulled away to deal with some burning issues before  
actually finishing it. If you consider this a core requirement, I  
could see about getting it out the door for you.

The 'projects/bulletin boards' idea is core to the new datastore which  
is expected to land into joyride as soon as update.2 leaves the door  
for a cycle of testing and integration, and then become a user-facing  
feature in update.3, or in about half a year.

The identity manager is a hack. It needs to be rewritten.
