-"""The webdav package provides WebDAV class 1 functionality within
-   the Zope environment. Based on:
+"""The webdav package provides WebDAV capability for common Zope objects.

+   Current WebDAV support in Zope provides for the correct handling of HTTP
+   GET, HEAD, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS, TRACE, PROPFIND, PROPPATCH, MKCOL, 
+   COPY and MOVE methods, as appropriate for the object that is the target
+   of the operation. Objects which do not support a given operation should
+   respond appropriately with a "405 Method Not Allowed" response.
+
+   Note that the ability of a Zope installation to support WebDAV HTTP methods
+   depends on the willingness of the web server to defer handling of those
+   methods to the Zope process. In most cases, servers will allow the process
+   to handle any request, so the Zope portion of your url namespace may well 
+   be able to handle WebDAV operations even though your web server software 
+   is not WebDAV-aware itself. Zope installations which use bundled server
+   implementations such as ZopeHTTPServer or ZServer should fully support 
+   WebDAV functions.
