I think a long polling option should be implemented as an extension to WebDAV sync. The issue with long polling right now is that there is no agreed upon standard way of doing that. I'd rather wait for a standards based approach to be defined - but WebDAV sync itself should not be blocked on that. -- Cyrus Daboo
