[Using Sakai] Goliath WebDAV Client

We caved in and did a campus site-license of South River Technologies' WebDrive for Mac and Windows and have finally made WebDAV usable and useful for mere mortals.  

We use WebDrive with the Blackboard Content System's Xythos-based WebDAV service, but WebDrive is an excellent native client and works great with anything that we have tested it with. Highly recommended.

Next up :: evaluating Box.net Business Edition as a campus-wide cloud file sharing Dropbox.com alternative with a Box.net SLA.
