This is true - but it is a really great feature. There is no other way the client applications can get instantly informed when other users are working on the same repository. As events in general this is of course an optional feature but it allows a lot of good this. Think of a web application running on top of slide. Slide is far too slow to deliver content in "realtime", so there is no other way than providing a clustered rendering layer that gets informed when content changes. If you want to open slide to web frameworks that are not java based, this webdav methods are the best solution. > > > Hi, > > I just came across some webdav command that deal with events in Exchange > > 2000 Server SP2. > > Does anybody know if this is part of the webdav protocol or is this a > > microsoft specific extension?
