Why do you think it's a mess? You mean RBPM is mess?

WebDAV is just file sharing+locking via http. Seems like it would be an 
excellent starting point for a distributed revision control system. I 
think Subversion (supposed CVS replacement) in fact does use WebDAV as 
it's preferred mode of deployment. If that's so then... we need...

1) a Subversion DAV client for Rev
2) A Rev plugin to handle mapping between Rev IDE events and Subversion 
DAV requests.

This could work!
