Bill,

There used to be another webdav client for python, but I can't seem to
find it now. I think the hosting site name was something like "Content
Lounge"? I searched the Internet Archive (www.archive.org) to see if
it was there, but I couldn't find it.

I just wanted to point out some other options you might consider for
addressing your problem:-

1. Use a java webdav client, and script it with jython. If you need to
communicate between jython and cpython, use Pyro.

2. You could script a webdav capable browser, such as MS Internet
Explorer, to act as your programmable webdav client. With MSIE, you
could use cpython + win32 extensions. I don't know if recent versions
of Netscape/Mozilla are webdav capable?
