-----------------------------
> I'm a bit concerned about exporting the entire jackrabbit-webdav API. So far

we never made promises :)
but being the author of the webdav-library: i treated it as public API since it
became the replacement of the retired slide project [1].
in fact i do remember a couple of api extensions, a major xml-related
refactoring in the very beginning and quite some bug fixes. can
we easily find out how often we were breaking strict backwards compatibility?
