Yes, I've contemplated either:
1) implementing the DAV protocols entirely in Perl for mod_perl
2) gluing in XS into mod_dav -- IIRC mod_dav has hooks for non-filesystem
respositories; it'd be great just to expose that API to mod_perl (haven't
cracked open that code yet though)
Issues: what will be required to implement DeltaV (I need concurrent
checkouts and versioning) as well? What's up with the expat-lite
in Apache conflicting with XML::Parser's expat?
Given a clear picture of these options and issues, I'd be more than
pleased to bang out a good Apache::WebDAV code base implementation.
