RE: XML elements in a copy method

You are correct, but this functionality hasn't been widely implemented.  It
turns out the
server knows more about what properties can and should be kept live on a
COPY 
operation, so the clients never provided this information and servers didn't
need it
anyway.  In RFC2518bis this has been removed.

Subject: XML elements in a copy method


Hi,
 
Maybe my reading of RFC 2518 is not thorough enough.  It seems to me that:
   XML elements are allowed in a copy method to modify the copying behavior.
 
But, what kind of XML elements are allowed and how should they be
interpreted?
 
Thx,
