8. WebDAV support 1. Either built in or a simple integration with an existing WebDAV impl? 1. Current best route seems existing impl.
Are there any servlet based WebDAV impls that are Apache licensed... maybe something included in Tomcat?
There are at least two (I'd say two and a half actually :)) way to proceed with existing Apache codebases:
1. Tomcat Webdav servlet: it's based on JNDI, so if we come up with a JNDI provider it shouldn't be too hard to integrate with it. Also, a JNDI provider might prove useful for other environments too.
1,1/2. we can always use the existing Webdav servlet code and mangle so that it works with Xindice. Yet I'd rather go with JNDI.
2. Integration with Jakarta Slide. From a quick look, though, I didn't like too much the design.
There is another question though: I tend to think that a WebDAV effort should be driven toward any XML:DB database, not Xindice alone. Once metadata are in place and included in XAPI it should be pretty viable to do.
