by the way, are we going to continue having both neon and serf WebDAV
implementations?

iirc the "serf" one only got merged because of Apple's dictatorial
app-store censorship regime that rejects anything with a LGPL license
for unknown and unexplained reasons?

and serf doesn't even solve the one problem with neon, namely that it
requires OpenSSL and doesn't work with NSS.

or does it?  i'd be all for switching to serf if it did :)
