WebDAV Apache Module

James Morris writes "Greg Stein has just announced the availability of a fledgling open source DAV Apache module. The timing of this is priceless, following the Microsoft Halloween Document, which stated, under the heading "Beating Linux" (read OSS): "Linux's homebase is currently commodity network and server infrastructure. By folding extended functionality (e.g. Storage+ in file systems, DAV/POD for networking) into today's commodity services, we raise the bar & change the rules of the game." And under "Blunting OSS attacks": "DAV is complex and the protocol spec provides an infinite level of implementation complexity for various applications (e.g. the design for Exchange over DAV is good but certainly not the single obvious design). Apache will be hard pressed to pick and choose the correct first areas of DAV to implement." "
