Well the reason I have used netatalk in the past is there is a blurb on netatalks page about the difference between CAP and netatalk that talks about netatalk having a better philosophy of how to do things or the netatalk people doing things a little better, something along those lines i havent read it in a while. And even though thats a pretty shallow reason for choosing one over the other I was in a hurry and it worked for me. And I knew that julian had done the netatalk stuff. So that's why I've used it. That doesn't really answer your question, but it gives you an idea of why this person uses it.
