I'm running a Mason based website, and I use Emacs when I write code.
My web designers use Dreamweaver.  I've designed the site so that my web
guys have to reserve me one table cell (or more than one depending on where
in the site, but you get the point) where I put a single dispatch  component
to the dynamic content appropriately.

The problem is, concurrency.  Dreamweaver has versioning built in... but
emacs has no way to recognize it.  So when I make a fix to a file, if the
designers aren't explicitly instructed to refresh-from-the-website-via-ftp,
my changes get hosed.

DW also speaks WEBDAV natively, but emacs does not.  Emacs speaks CVS
natively, but DW does not.  DW also speaks SourceSafe <shudder>, but I never
took that seriously... :-)

I've been trying, in various attempts over the past two years, to come up
with a compromise between the two.  The closest I've come was somebody
mentioned a CVS emulation layer over a DAV repository... but that never came
to fruition.  And even more frustrating, I haven't managed to pick up enough
eLisp to do it myself w/ vc.el <sigh>.

Does anybody have any ideas for my next direction to turn?

TIA!

L8r,
Rob
