Implement a WebDAV front-end for Tahoe-LAFS so that files and directories stored in a distributed grid can be accessed by operating systems (including Windows, Mac, and Linux) and applications that speak the WebDAV protocol. For details see #451 which describes what the Tahoe-LAFS web server does now, how this differs from what a WebDAV web server does, and how to get started experimenting with the relevant source code.
# Distributed Introduction
Implement a protocol for distributed introduction, thus removing the only remaining Single Point of Failure (SPoF) in the Tahoe-LAFS system. For details see [ticket #68](/tahoe-lafs/trac-2024-07-25/issues/68#issuecomment-102558) which describes the distributed notification algorithm and points to the relevant source code.
