As Helge just kind-of proved; it really doesn't matter what RFC2518bis says on this topic. Server implementers will do what makes sense to them anyway :-). So removing that sentence will not affect what those who don't claim WebDAV compliance do anyway. On the other hand, it may give people that do want to re-use parts of WebDAV without doing a fully compliant server a useful hint about what can be done. So I still see no compelling reason to that change: removing the sentence will have no effect on interop requirements at all. Best regards, Julian
