DAVfs Linux file system driver is a Linux file system driver that allows you to mount a WebDAV server as a disk drive. WebDAV is an extension to HTTP/1.1 that allows remote collaborative authoring of Web resources, defined in RFC 2518. DAVfs allows a remote Web server to be edited using standard applications that interact with the file system. For example, a remote Web site could be updated in-place, using the same development tools that initially created the site. DAVfs also supports SSL.

Changes: Experimental support was added for the non-standard method USERINFO, which allows this release to get information about available and used Web space from the server. Failed file upload attempts are now repeated at increasing time intervals. If a davfs filesystem is unmounted at disconnect, local changes are cached and submitted at the next mount. Many other minor improvements and bugfixes were made.
