This name is very much in conflict with widespread use of Distributed Authoring and Versioning (RFC2518, aka WEBDAV). For example: libapache-mod-dav - A DAV module for Apache libapache2-dav-svn - Apache module for Subversion - in development, alpha libhttp-dav-perl - HTTP:DAV - WebDAV client library for Perl. python-davlib - WebDAV client library for Python sitecopy - A program for managing a WWW site via FTP, DAV or HTTP xsitecopy - A program for managing a WWW site via FTP, DAV or HTTP(GNOME version) A name change would be a small but significant contribution to the namespace. -- - mdz
