------------------------------------------------------------
I kind of fell like webdav alone is an important enough aspect for future ivy
users that it would be good to have a resolver specifically for it, Jackrabbit
(http://jackrabbit.apache.org/) is the probably the implementation we should
use until vfs moves over to using it.
I guess the question is, is the feature important enough for Ivy to be a
complete tool that Ivy writes it's own impl for webdav, or wait for commons-vfs
to have it.
I'd vote that webdav support as a feature of the tool overrides waiting for
library support.

> Ship ivy with commons-vfs-sandbox.jar, because it provides the webdav support

> Key: IVY-643
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-643
> Project: Ivy
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha-2
> Reporter: Ivan "Rambius" Ivanov
>
> The commons-vsf project has been split into commons-vfs.jar and
> commons-vfs-sandbox.jar. The webdav support is provided by
> commons-vfs-sandbox.jar, see http://commons.apache.org/vfs/index.html : "Due
> to some technical reasons we had to move the webdav and jcifs (smb)
> filesystem to the sandbox. So if you need one of these filesystems you have
> to build VFS manually."
> Ivy does not come with commons-vfs-sandbox.jar and I believe it should in
> order to prevent its users from the hassle of building commons-vfs
> themselves. I myself built it from commons-vfs 1.0 source.
