You rock!

I see it uses ElementTree and/or compatibles to parse the XML--nice! I
also see that it uses zope.locking for the locking. How is that
different from zope.app.locking? Is zope.app.locking actually maintained
or just another case for the fall cleaning?

I can't wait to see this in Zope 3. I never would've thought that the
WebDAV story might improve in Zope 3.
