+<para><acronym>WebDAV</acronym> is a <emphasis>D</emphasis>istributed
+<emphasis>A</emphasis>uthoring and <emphasis>V</emphasis>ersioning protocol
+for
+the World Wide Web. It allows for easy management of documents and scripts
+on a
+<ulink url="help:/kioslave/webdav.html">http</ulink> server, and has
+additional
+features designed to simplify version management amongst multiple
+authors.</para>
+
+<para>Usage of this protocol is simple. Type the location you want to view,
+similar to a <acronym>http</acronym> URL except for the webdav:// protocol
+name at the start. An example is
+<userinput>webdav://<replaceable>www.hostname.com/path/</replaceable></userinput>.
+If you specify a directory name, a list of files and directories will be
+displayed,
+and you can manipulate these directories and files just as you would with
+any
+other filesystem.</para>

+<para>File locking allows users to lock a file, informing others that they
+are
+currently working on this file. This way, editing can be done without fear
+that
+the changes may be overwritten by another person who is also editing the
+same
+document.</para>

+<para><acronym>WebDAV</acronym> allows access to the script which is called
+to
+produce a specific page, so changes can be made to the script itself.</para>

+<para>To take advantage of these additional capabilities, you will need an
+application which supports them. No application currently supports them
+through
