RE: Release the webdav client and consider moving it into a jakarta's commons Httpclient
>From a user standpoint, moving the slide client to commons does make sense. As a library user and from an application developer you would either be: 1) working on a content storage, at which point working with Slide Server. 2) working on accessing internal or external WebDAV repositories, at which point only interested in the webdav-client. 2a) This also has a double-benefit when looking at commons-vfs that you get a 'commons-webdav' library instead of, presently, downloading the slide source tree to compile a recent webdav client lib with several bugfixes that are not in an existing binary yet. Bonus) Since the Apache Jackrabbit project also has a WebDAV client library, would be a very good opportunity to bring the two different client libraries together under one 'commons-webdav' (or whatever it will be called). As to with commons-httpclient, or as its own commons-library, that is open for discussion. WebDAV has a dependency on commons-httpclient, but since WebDAV has its own level of domain knowledge above and beyond normal HTTP, keeping it on its own does not seem unreasonable (again, based on the domain knowledge needed).

Re: Release the webdav client and consider moving it into a jakarta's commons Httpclient
So technically it is ok to separate them. Slide is doing better on activity atm and I rather focus on increasing that activity and in the end move to a Slide TLP, then splitting up Slide to commons, leaving Slide with just the server part and possibly no future of becoming TLP and therefor no future. Also I wonder if commons is a place where the slide client has any life expectancy, since people interested in webdav are hanging around here and not necessarily at commons. Though choice.

If anyone is willing to do some work in the client: Is it easily possible to add form based authentication to allow access to Exchange servers having this form of authentication?

It does make sense also from the technical view. AFAIK client and server are independent developments.

Re: Release the webdav client and consider moving it into a jakarta's commons Httpclient
Maybe it is a good idea to move the WebDAV client library to Jakarta Commons. However, there must be an individual driving the process. Oliver 2007/4/4, Kostis Anagnostopoulos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Hi to all developers, I hava noticed that the WebDAV client library is a very important piece for many other projects. But the latest stable version is 2.1, release 2 and a half years ago! (According to this: http://apache.otenet.gr/dist/jakarta/slide/binaries/) I would like to ask: 1) Are there any plans for releasing a newer version of slide webdav client? 2) Does anybody agree on me that the WebDAV functionality may belong to the Apache commons HTTP-Client library?
