You should manually begin and commit a transaction when you modify any data

Hi there!
I've noticed that the LOCK method in Slide 2.1 distinguishes between "write"
and "transaction" lock types. WebDAV spec defines just the "write" lock
type, afaik, so what's the semantics of the "transaction" lock type? Thanks.
Yours sincerely,
Andrey.

Hi there!
Here's the case. When I save a property like this:
descriptor.setProperty(
new NodeProperty(propertyName, propertyValue, propertyNamespace));
where a descriptor is an instance of the NodeRevisionDescriptor class and a
propertyValue is a String object that contains line breaks,
evisions could be updated?
Updated - no. Theoretically, they can be deleted (WebDAV doesn't prohibit
it, afaik). I don't know if Slide allows it though, but will have to find
out soon... Well, it's another story. :-)

Slide 2.0 works with OS X. Well, "works" means that one can connect to a

then one could use standard clustering capabilities of some App Server -

Hi, Kiran!
I suspect that the incorrect behavior of the copy method might be just one
more consequence of the big flaw in Slide's architecture - some important
parts of WebDAV's logic (including versioning) are implemented in the
"wedav" layer only - see the org.apache.slide.webdav package and its
