Oops. Yah. It would become option (2) (add compat stuff first) by dropping it over the current one. Mostly, I'm concerned about the SSL stuff that was added, but there may be other things (need to check the CVS logs). For example, there was all that stuff dealing with the errors (which never went in, I believe?). >... > Oh well, send it to Jeremy and he'll check it in if it's ready.

When I get the stuff ready, I'll speak up again. And yes, I do intend to ensure this stuff is ready in time for 1.6. Cheers, -g p.s. and I retract my request for inclusion of davlib. I think there is still some design work to do on that guy. -- Greg Stein, http://www.lyra.org/
