Dear sliders, I've been developing with slide for a long long time and our webdav server is almost a distinct fork of slide already. We've been working with patches to keep somewhat in sync with the slide 2.1 codebase, but it is getting too clumsy.
Some of the work I have done here, which we would like to contribute back to slide, is: - lucene-based DASLs are sorted within lucene to make it even faster, and some other optimizations, like allowing DAV:limit without DAV:orderby since we found out that the real bottleneck is generating the data for all resources in a multi-status response. now DASLs are around a factor of 10 faster than the 'old' SQL way. (I just saw in the logs that Daniel Florey committed my initial patch for this, thanks! That one didn't include the optimizations above, though.) - added support for multiple search scopes and the slide:exclude option for the lucene backed DASLs - jms notification of changes to an external system. we have been using it for a long time for invalidating the cache of our cocoon websites using cocoon's event cache block. - a replication event handler which replicates webdav methods to a number of other hosts, configurable per path per namespace - extractors (content and property) for the OpenDocument format (any type), and some general ones for xml - a cache manager web interface to have some rudimentary control over the caches in slide I would really like to contribute this to slide itself (FYI, I already signed a CLA, I'm a committer for Cocoon), but I haven't seen many commits lately, and merging something like this might be some work.. I just wouldn't want the patches to get dusty in bugzilla again for a few months, it might then be easier to dump my working copy in our svn here. A working version with these features is downloadable from www.hippocms.org. It is called "Hippo Repository", the backend for our cms. For svn access, click on "Getting the Code", a build is available as a zip under "Getting Started". That one is slightly outdated though, I'm hoping to upload a new build tomorrow.
