Shibboleth Developers

webdav was one one of the use cases discussed during this past 
monday's conf call. Altho, strictly speaking, it may not sound like a 
"non-browser, non-web application" (since it runs over http), the 
clients are often something other than a web browser.

During the call, it was noted that the apache plugin mod_dav works 
with shibboleth.

The next problem was finding a client that could provide the 
appropriate SAML assertions....

Here's some info about the WEBDAV support built into OS X....

this functionality is available via the Mac FINDER. However, based 
on this note from Apple, it appears that the core functionality may 
be built into Darwin, the open source system that OS X is built 
on...... check out the man page for mount_webdav

so.... what  would a use case for this look like?
