One of the comments on the Adv. Collection protocol was that sections 5.3 and 5.4 were confusing. I suggest we replace those two sections with the following text: ---------------------------------------------------- 5.3 URI Mappings Created by a BIND Suppose a BIND request causes a binding from "Binding-Name" to resource R to be added to a collection, C. Then if C-MAP is the set of URL's that were mapped to C before the BIND request, then for all members, "C-URL" of C-MAP, the URL "C-URL/Binding-Name" is mapped to resource R following the BIND request. Note that if a binding is made to the collection itself (or to a parent of the collection), an infinite number of mappings is introduced. 5.4 Example: URI Mappings Created by a BIND For example, if a binding from "index.html" to R is added to the collection C, and if the following URL's are mapped to C: http://www.fuzz.com/A/1 http://fuzz.com/A/one then the following new mappings to R are introduced: http://www.fuzz.com/A/1/index.html http://fuzz.com/A/one/index.html If a binding from "myself" to C is then added to C, the following infinite number of additional mappings to C are introduced: http://www.fuzz.com/A/1/myself http://www.fuzz.com/A/1/myself/myself ... and the following infinite number of additional mappings to R are introduced: http://www.fuzz.com/A/1/myself/index.html http://www.fuzz.com/A/1/myself/myself/index.html ... ---------------------------------------------------- Cheers, Geoff
