Description Larry Edelstein CLA 2004-11-02 18:17:36 EST 
Suddenly my WebDAV synchronization is broken.  I have outgoing changes but it 
doesn't reflect them.  It says "no changes in 'WebDAV()'.  That message itself 
seems strange - I think it usually has the name of the root folder (like the 
project) or something like that, doesn't it?

While we're at it, I think WebDAV is substantially flawed in that I can't 
change the destination of a synchronization after I export, or even find it; 
if I want to find out where I'm synching to, I'm totally stuck and I have to 
do a new export.

webdav/ftp are more examples than actual product quality at this point. We won't
have plans to put more resources on these plug-ins for 3.1. We will ensure that
sync'ng at least works.
Comment 2 Michael Valenta CLA 2005-03-31 14:51:09 EST 
We don't have time to address this in 3.1
Comment 3 Michael Valenta CLA 2005-05-06 17:12:58 EDT 
The WebDAV plugin is currently not being actively developed or maintained.
Comment 4 Michael Valenta CLA 2007-04-30 11:21:40 EDT 
We are in the process of removing the Team FTP/WebDAV feature since the DSDP Target management component (http://www.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/) provides complimentary functionality and will be shipping as part of Europa. Although the feature will not be part of Europa, we have provided a link to a 3.3 compatible version of the feature at http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Team_Development.

As of now 'LATER' and 'REMIND' resolutions are no longer supported.
Please reopen this bug if it is still valid for you.
