Wish List
This is WebDAV related stuff I'd like to see happen. I may work on these as time permits, I'm very happy to talk to anyone about any of these and I'll buy a big cookie for anyone who can cross something off this list.
Configuration Without Restart
This implies a few things:
Configuration values are accessible somewhere through WebDAV
The server is controllable through WebDAV. Either by setting values in files or custom HTTP methods.
An admin client exists.
Workflow in Server
The idea is to allow the server to respond to changes in an item with a predefined set of tasks (a script).
This could be a set of event listeners that tie in with an external workflow engine.
Mozilla WebDAV Client
Initially a Web Folders work-a-like, but I'd like something with ACL editing, DASL searching and property viewing/editing.
The main thing is a drag-n-drop GET/PUT/MOVE/COPY interface, though. Currently my Mozilla clients can't click a link and launch a Web Folders session.
CalDAV Server
It would be nice to provide a server to go along with Mozilla's
Lightning
Simple CalDAV Client
While I'm wishing.
Reference Management
I see this as a big weekness of WebDAV in general. I'll expand on this more later.
"Content Types"
Think XML Schema for item properties and Collection contents. Ideally a WebDAV client could interpret the type definition to display a detail view and edit form.
Address Book/User Management
This is a compaining to the CalDAV server. I think LDAP fills this role pretty well, so maybe better LDAP Store (or maybe this isn't necessary).
I was also thinking of a vCard store. I don't know how useful this would be, but something like this is definately needed (to go along with Calendaring).
