Peter, Thank you for your comments, and also for the link to the JSR170 work. This is a very useful perspective on the integration requirements of content repositories and I say it applies just as strongly for integration of managed documents in content services. I will make sure that other organizations are aware of this initiative and also of the requirements that are emerging around WebDAV integration in transactional applications. Personally, I resonate with your thoughts around providing developers ways to reuse common skills and patterns in developing transaction-protected operation sequences and especially the testing and verification of them. It is an interesting idea to see how transaction control could be introduced as a supplementary standard in a way that serves HTTP and its WebDAV extensions. Something to think about. I think WebDAV developers would have a strong interest in that to the degree it impacts the appeal of WebDAV servers for integration into enterprise applications. -- Dennis Dennis E.

[ ... ] I'm currently working on a Content Repository API on top of a WebDAV server, which is intended to become compliant to JSR170 (http://www.jcp.org/jsr/detail/170.jsp) where transaction control is planned to be part of Level 2. Any comments? Peter ------------------- Peter Zaretzke Software AG
