We use WebDAV for our network protocol, but the server is not a full DeltaV
server, nor does it support DeltaV's concept of "autocheckout" to support
"down-level" clients (such as Web Folders). That kind of support is planned
for version 2.0, unless somebody in the community provides the necessary
patches (read: it isn't on our dev plan, but we won't reject it if somebody
provides it).

The idea certainly isn't lame, and is precisely one of the reasons for our
choice of WebDAV in the first place (over two years ago!).
