One of the members of my group spent some time looking at the
WebDAV support in Slide, and concluded that it was too closely tied to
the underlying Slide content management system.

If you need Java DAV server code for Apache, we've got a barebones DAV
servlet (basically a complete DAV/DeltaV version of the standard
HTTPServlet
class) which is a good base for extension. I'm reasonably sure that I
can work out a way to clear that little hunk of code for open-source
pretty quickly.

There's also a decent bare-bones DAV servlet (just DAV, no DeltaV)
under the IPL called dav4j at
http://oss.software.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/dav4j/. It
claims to be for Websphere, but it works under the Tomcat engine
for Apache.
