vfs with svn backend

Hi all

Is the svn backend working (class.vfs_dav.inc.php)?

I looking at using the power of svn as a backend for document handling in the 
app property.

I've set up a svn repository on my laptop as a test-environment.
By looking at the code - it seems that file:// is not supported - but that 
http:// should work.

When I try to create a directory as:

$this->vfs->mkdir(array(
      'string' => '/property',
      'relatives' => array(
           RELATIVE_NONE
       )));

I get a 409 in return

this is what is sent in net_http_client::sendCommand()

MKCOL /svn/repos/property HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Basic c2lndXJkOjU3MnNwcnU=
Host: 127.0.0.1
Connection: close
Accept-Encoding: chunked
user-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; PHPGroupware dav_client/1; Linux)
Depth: 0

The result is:

HTTP/1.1 409 Conflict

Any clue on this matter?

Regards
