First release had my changes +from yesterday. Then I realized I'd also need support for making WebDAV +"collections" (subdirectories), and sent Clint a patch for that too, as +well as a patch for querying DAV properties, and that was 0.2. +Got it into Debian unstable as well. Should have everything I'll need now. + +The webdav special remote is now working! Still todo: +Encryption support, progress bars, large file chunking, and webapp +configurators. But already, it's a lot nicer than the old approach of using +davfs2, which was really flakey and slow with large data volumes. + +I did notice, though, that uploading a 100 mb file made the process use 100 +mb of memory. This is a problem I've struggled with earlier with S3, the +Haskell http libraries are prevented from streaming data by several parts +of the protocol that cause the data to be accessed more than once. I guess +this won't be a problem for DAV though, since it'll probably be chunking +files anyway. + +--- + +Mailed out all my Kickstarter USB key rewards, and ordered +the T-shirts too.
