Well this is rather off topic but I don't claim perfection. At any rate the only time I have heard of webdav as a professional developer is when I encounter projects like this. I dont hear IT project managers say whings like "WebDAV" is the future. Nor do I see a flood of conferences on it. Perhaps it is still theoretical, but when I mean alive or dead, I am referring to the use of a technology within the wider scope of business applications. It may be that some day it gains acceptance but at the moment it isnt "where its at." That territory is currently flooded with things like XML, XSLT and enterprose development. However, the industry is at a varaible machine and you never know what will happen.
But at any rate, the viability of WebDAV is -- FAR -- off topic. Therefore, I will defer to you and resume the discussion of the question at hand. -- Robert "dave rogers" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Hmmm, > > I was under the impression that WebDAV was full steam ahead, > being adoped widely and so on.
