I am new to using XWiki and tried looking for any previous discussion on this (and didn't find any).

One of the biggest issues I've found so far in using XWiki is editing documents (especially when developing a new set of pages for the web site or adding many of them).

So, as per the Ideas page on xwiki.org I'd like to bring up the idea of adding a WebDAV interface to XWiki.

This could allow easy access to the various pages themselves (including classes, objects, and attachments using some sort of naming convention) so that creating/updating pages could be done with many different tools.

I haven't looked into anything too much yet, but I would think that using something like the WebDAV Construction Kit from Jakarta Slide (http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/wck.html) should make the task fairly straight forward.

Does this sound like it's feasible?

This is one possibility. The other one is to finish the JCR support that has been started in XWiki's core. We could then use an existing JCR implementation such as Exo's one or Jackrabbit, etc. I'm pretty sure they have WebDav support and we would get it for free in addition to lots of others bonuses... Someone needs to verify that we can run all the queries we currently have on JCR. For example does JCR support joins?
