<title>Protocol — How the client and server communicate</title>
<simplesect>
<para>The Subversion client library <literal>libsvn_ra_dav</literal> uses
the <emphasis>Neon</emphasis> library to generate WebDAV DeltaV requests
and sends them to a "Subversion-aware" Apache server.</para>
<para>This Apache server is running <emphasis>mod_dav</emphasis> and
<emphasis>mod_dav_svn</emphasis>, which translates the requests into
Subversion filesystem calls.</para>
<para>For more info, see <xref linkend="archi.network"/>.</para>
<para>For a detailed description of exactly how Greg Stein
<email>gstein@lyra.org</email> is mapping the WebDAV DeltaV spec to
Subversion, see his paper: <systemitem
class="url">http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/www/webdav-usage.html</systemitem>
</para>
