Hi,

I was discussing with a friend and strong svn lover about versioning
control systems, in particular svn and bzr. In the discussion, he told
me that what he likes most about svn is that he can commit via http
(read: webdav) using mod_dav_svn.

I told him that I couldn't imagine that it shouldn't be too hard to hack
something using mod_python and bzr to install handler, which processes
webdav requests and commits the result into an bzr branch somewhere on
the local filesystem.

Another approach would be perhaps an bzr plugin, which starts an webdav
server as service. This would require a more or less complete python
implementation of an dav capable http server (is there something like
this in python land?).

Now I wanted to ask the bzr community what they think about this
approach. Perhaps somebody already started hacking this?
