right you are. Putting the default useflag into base/make.defaults has the |
| 10 |
same effect as a nowebdav useflag without being a no* useflag and confusing |
| 11 |
with other useflags that do not have the no* bit. |

If there are no objections and you agree with the solution I will make |
| 14 |
webdav global and default after a week from now and you can remove the old |
| 15 |
nowebdav useflag. |

If there are any problems with putting it in base/ for example neon does not |
| 18 |
work on hardened, embedded or anything else I would like to know about it. |
