I'd like to discuss these questions (hopefully not at length, they should be fairly easy to answer) at the Interim WG meeting...But I thought I'd throw out the e-mail so people could ponder it first. I'm working on a project that is providing rich searching capabilities to DAV properties. One feature we'd like to provide is keyword searching behaviors for properties. Say, for example, you requested <foo:author> and the resource had <foo:author>, <foo:author_name>, and <foo:authors> the server's response would contain all of these properties. It appears that clients should expect to get fewer properties than they request and I would assume they'd accept more but I'd like to get the opinion of the community to ensure that we aren't doing something to break the protocol. Second question, can a server respond to a PROPFIND for a particular property with multiple values for that property? Thirdly, if a property has a rich XML structure as it's value, we'd like to return any matching XML tag in that structure. (So if the <foo:authors> tag contained <foo:author>Chris</foo:author> <foo:author>David</foo:author> it would return all the <foo:authors> and each of the <foo:author> values separately.) Anyways, see many of you next Monday!Received on Thursday, 16 January 2003 14:44:24 GMT
