Hackday

For last year's Hackday, Gearóid Ó Treasaigh, Ciarán Ó hUallacháin and I created a Firefox toolbar for IBM Connections. It is still going strong and we recently added Firefox 7 support to it!

Hopefully we'll get around to releasing it to the general public on Lotus Greenhouse or presenting it in a developerWorks article sometime soon. If only we weren't so busy!

For Hackday 9, my project was to write a WebDAV interface to Connections Files. I've an iPad and an iPhone myself and I felt the lack of WebDAV support was a feature that was calling out for developer attention.

I implemented it with the help of the Milton Java WebDAV Server Library which I can highly recommend.

If I have time, I'll write up a blog post at some point detailing how I went about my implementation.

Currently, it is read only but I hope to have the time to add support for uploading new files and new versions of files soon.
