Relation to SabreDAV-docs?

[untitaker]

Sabre-DAV already has a very extensive wiki about Card- and CalDAV at http://sabre.io/dav/. How does this one differ in goals?

The SabreDAV pages are primarily SabreDAV documentation and not a Wiki as in "everyone can contribute". The SabreDAV pages basically help you to understand how SabreDAV works, DAVWiki wants to help to understand how *DAV works.

The first goal of DAVWiki is to present the content of relevant RFC documents in a browser friendly way with many cross-links. Searching a specific definition or feature in RFCs can be a pain, especially if you don't know for sure which RFC you're looking for. This Wiki aims to improve that.

The second goal is to share undocumented or non-standard features and known issues with certain implementations.

It's also meant to help developing extensions for WebDAV based protocols, by giving a better overview over the existing *DAV extensions.

I don't think it's helpful for either of your goals to split effort like that. Obviously SabreDAV's documentation is SabreDAV-centric, but there is a lot of general information there on how to build robust DAV software.

I'd love to contribute to such a joint effort, but ATM I see that you're trying to maintain an index of DAV properties and WebDAV extensions by hand while SabreDAV's wiki contains a lot of useful prose. I find those two documentation types to be complementary.

Davwiki is just at the beginning. It takes some time to add all that information. Adding indices of DAV properties is just the first step.

Also, davwiki is a wiki that everyone can contribute to. I think only fruux can contribute to the SabeDAV docs.
