Much of the information that was filtered into this book came from difficult-to-cite sources: working group meetings, hallway conversations, discussions with co-workers, and the copious traffic on the various WebDAV mailing lists. Meeting minutes are available online through the IETF archives (www.ietf.org/proceedings/directory.html). The official WebDAV standards development mailing lists and their archives can be found through the WebDAV Working Group's home page (http://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/webdav/ ). Various development-related mailing lists also have extensive archives, most notably dav-dev (http://dav.lyra.org/mailman/listinfo/dav-dev).

More than 5,000 organizations count on O’Reilly

O’Reilly covers everything we've got, with content to help us build a world-class technology community, upgrade the capabilities and competencies of our teams, and improve overall team performance as well as their engagement.

Julian F.

Head of Cybersecurity

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

Addison B.

Field Engineer

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

Amir M.

Data Platform Tech Lead

I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
