You're absolutely right.

Right.

I understand, no versioning and that like - but what kind of caching
is useful? time-oriented? means, every xx minutes an update?

Another question, how do I configure the access rights on those mapped
webdav collections?
If all meta-data is read directly from hard disc, it will be stored only
in memory, right? So, where do I save the access rights (they may be
different from the UNIX access rights)? Inside the database?


And now the most interessting question: is there anybody out there, who
is willing to implement that special slide store? ;-)

thanx a lot,

Sebastian
