We victims of SVEN got 100 per hour - mostly with BIG attatchments,
overflowing the10Mb quota in one hour.

The paradigm of 'management by objectives' and 'top-down design'
was popular in the 70's. 

The project must be seen as a heirarchy/tree.
And the higher goal(s) must be known before their components are
 discussed.

I guess WebDAV's final goal is to allow collaboration on different
  versions of different projects ?
If so you perhaps have [and note the tree structure]:
  persons
     ID, password
  project
     version
        files
           read
           write
           execute - perhaps
            apparently from what I read the files have 'attributes' which are 
              important.

In a top-down view, one knows why the attributes are important, before
one knows how to get the attributes.
Ie. you know the 'what' before you worry about the implementation
details.

Timing problems can be very difficult to trace on inet systems.
Each test-run costs resources.
