[Zope-dev] entering into the webdav interoperability test?

[Andreas Jung]

I think not. Their is a difference between compliance and interoperability.
Zope 2.4 is very more-or-less complaint with the specs. "more-or-less" means
that the Webdav specs are a bit weak in some points. So every client
implements
its own interpretation of the specs. And this leads to interoperability
problems.
I checked 2.4 against GoLive, cadaver, sitecopy and M$ Office 2000. Except
Office 2000
all clients play very fine with Zope. Office 2K has some very nasty bugs in
its
Webdav implementation and a strange belief in how filenames should look like
(saving
a file 'index_html' through webdav does not work because Office 2K always
sends
webdav commands with 'index_html.' (with trailing dot) to Zope.
