As a quick note, I'd *love* to dive in and start doing some

Additionally to what Pedro said I'd like to point to our Bugzilla at
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/ which is a fountain of inspiration.
E.g. http://s.apache.org/EdO shows all the ideas with more than five
votes. The potential to use the same tool for tracking bugs,
enhancement and feature ideas indicates the the name Bugzilla is too
narrow and thus the old project to be called Issuezilla.

Hmm...

Jim is an expert in serf, I suppose ;), so the webdav issues in
Bugzilla would be indeed be a good starting point for him ;-).

excellent, that would be a perfect start to review the new UCP code and provide feedback or better improvements.

This would be a good opportunity to understand the concept behind our Universal Content Broker (UCB) and the Universal Content Providers (UCP). The WebDAV UCP (including http) which is based on serf now and can be used as a start to create a new CMIS UCP.

I volunteer to support Jim where I can and I am sure Oliver and Andre will do it as well.

Having a native CMIS implementation would be better than one based on Chemistry. But that is a detail only. The are enough things to cover starting to define a usable Url schema (e.g. cmis://<servername>/<whatever-entry>/<directory>/<documentname>[?<param>=<value>...]
...

The advantage of a CMIS UCP is obvious and it would allow us the interaction with many other software systems supporting this standard.

I will add one of my personal favorites to that category:
we should support CardDav addressbooks using the Mulberry
vCard library, and webdav was a requirement for this:
