Hey Yann,

We added XEP-129 (webdav) support to Openfire for the next release. The code is 
now available on trunk. As I said, we added webdav support for sharing files in 
rooms so we didn't have to implement PROPPATCH (being a SHOULD and not a MUST 
there is some room to not use it) ;).

We initially were going to also implement XEP-135 but due to time constraints 
and requirements we decided  to punt it. XEP-135 was basically giving us 
notifications and files listings. When integrated to MUC the notification can 
be done in the room itself and asking clients to join a room and also check a 
node looked to us like a little redundant. So since we were going into 
undefined-land by sharing files in a room we finally decided to only use 
XEP-129 that was enough for us.

Regards,

  -- Gato

Hi guys,

The Muc approach seems very interesting to us since we've based a lot
of our protocols extension on XEP-0045:
- mucom: multi user communities  [1]
- mucol : multi user collaboration for which we have and audio/video
and appsharing implementation [2]

An easy way to allow all the occupants of a room to access a given
file might be to define the JID [EMAIL PROTECTED] (couldn't found a name
for that JID, is there any?) as an authorized entity. By such all room
jid ([EMAIL PROTECTED]/nick) would be authorized to download the file if
the users uses this JID in the HTTP request.

What is missing for us in the WebDav XEP is an additional layer that
would allow to manage files. For example, we might want to associate
files to a community, and allow members of this community to download
them. These files could be forms to fill in to join the community, ....

Basically, what we would need is XEP-0135 (file sharing) with XEP-0129
(WebDav file transfer). Is it possible to use Webdav as a stream
method for XEP-0096 (file transfer)?
Only thing missing then would be to allow users to add files to a MUC
room which shouldn't be too complicated.

What's great with XEP-0135 is that it'd work for MUC rooms and also
for users.

Gato is there any kind of WebDav support in Openfire?

Would jdisk allow such usage? If yes is there a way to see exactly
what's exchange between the server and the client (even if it's not a
XEP, just to look at the stanza workflow).
