Yup. I'm in the process. I'm using mod_python to do LDAP
authentication of WebDAV requests.
Now I just need to get a FUSE filesystem working and I should
be able to cobble together a "simple" DAV server...
It would be *so* much cleaner to have a total Python-based
solution (that could run as root) so I periodically check on
progress in this area. I have high hopes for Twisted's DAV
server but I'm told it's not ready for use yet. In another
thread I just learned about PanDAV
http://ivoras.sharanet.org/projects/pandav.html
but I haven't installed it yet.
