Thanks Edmund. I have been using WCK but still have that feeling of so
much extra baggage, not to mention extra config files. Yes, I want to
write a class that implements an interface like the interface you
implement with WCK.

As for lock management, I can't use Slide's lock manager because there
are multiple interfaces to my application, so files might be
locked/unlocked from outside the webdav arena. (Like you might lock a
file via a SOAP call, and then that has to be reflected to a user
accessing the file over WEBDAV)
