Thanks for the response. I quess my question is, "What is the overall architecture for CMS as far as Apache goes ?" There seems to be quite a bit of duplication, and I am not sure why slide wouldn't use jackrabbit, or 170. They seem like the logical stack. I agree with your assessment re: webdav. It is more global in nature.
Just curious, why do you recommend against using the server Slide API. Is it because it is only relevant to slide ? If so, I agree, because it causes technology lockin. So, if that is the case, what is the benefit of the server api at all ?

Jackrabbit isn't used either. It's the other way round as well, Jackrabbit does not use Slide either. I guess there are quite a number of parameters included in the decision which way to go, so I really can not make any recommendation. Good thing about WebDAV is that there already are a number of applications supporting it. Drawback would be that WebDAV by nature is a client/sever protocol, so you would always have the communication overhead. On the other hand while JSR170 covers only certain aspects of a content store, WebDAV is pretty much complete. Additionally, programming against JSR170 would restrict you to Java solutions. I *personally* would not at all recommend programming against the sever Slide API... Oliver On Tue, 30 Nov 2004 17:52:17 -0500, Jeff Broberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ok, simple question.
