I'm not sure if people are relying on being able to build code via WebDAV shares, however. Perhaps the solution task could use WebDAV via the alternate task, rather than the internal WebDAV stuff?
Anyways, I'll say 0 instead of -1 for removal of WebDAV. I'm not personally convinced either way, but I do agree it's a huge pain in the butt to get it configured (besides being a security hole).

The latest stuff has the EnableWebDAV stuff to prevent it being used by default. It's been in there for a month or so and tells the user to either provide a webmap or set EnableWebDAV = true to make it work.
-1 for removing it - if people want it, they can be pointed at documentation to set up the server properly.

Perhaps we could have a <webdav-copy> task instead that would be similar to
<copy> but accept WebDAV sources/targets.
+1 for the idea of removing WebDAV from the <solution> task.

I haven't used WebDAV, but if I could use it to distribute a website to a
final server, it would be very very useful to me. At the moment, I have a
manual FTP step is required to move a web project to the production server.

Hi,
I'm just asking to get an idea of how many people actually use it, but how would you feel if we would remove WebDAV support from the <solution> task ?
We've noticed that lots of people have problems configuring their webserver, in order to get the <solution> task working, so it might be better to remove support for WebDAV altogether. This would also allow us to simplify some of the code, and make the code easier to maintain.
What do you think ?
