Yes. I overread the example, lindly assumign that an example given by
the maintainer is correct...but, really, adding the user to a group
should be done the Debian Way.

Agreed. I will just split your propoal in two paragraphs, to improve
readability.
davfs2 is a Linux file system driver that allows mouting a WebDAV
resource as a regular file system, so that files in that resource can
be edited using standard applications that interact with the file
system (e.g. text editors).
.
It supports SSL and proxy servers, uses coda for file system
operations and the neon library for WebDAV access, and is based on
uservfs.
The only worry I have is the repetition of "that" in the first
sentence....as well as the repetition of "and" in the second one. This
repetition of "and" is grammatically correct, but I usually avoid
repeating it in French and I therefore assume it should be avoided
also in English. Advice?
