You talk the talk, but do you walk the walk?

Today I'd tried look some stuff up in the help system that
comes with microsoft.
Its amazing how many words and links they can use and still 
provide no information. The odds are good that if there's
a screen full of words and links about a subject that even if by 
accident, it should say something useful. I lost.

A microsoft manual, hey? It might make good bed time reading.

I was trying to find information on webdav, or web folders, or just
plain dav, what ever you like to call it. IE and office is meant
to support the dav protocol but I couldn't get it to work.

I eventually got network documents (I think thats what they're called)
on a w2k box to talk to apache with the mod_dav module loaded.

I'm looking for a document management system, and dav looks promising,
but I've only just started playing with it. Its meant to support
all the features I'm looking for, revision control, multi platform, 
etc, but I'm not sure if they have been implemented yet in mod_dav.

Searching for "document management" on sourceforge brings up heaps
on hits, unfortunately allot of them are vapour ware.

I might look into it a bit more then ask some questions on the main list.
