Mark,

I don't think we will use WebDAV for Eve but there are other projects 
that will be part of the directory top level project.  These projects
include JNDI providers for various directories or naming systems.  I
have just always wanted to have a JNDI provider for WebDAV and don't
necessarily intend to use if within Eve.

Sorry for the confusion,
Alex
