After all the idea *is* to reimplement it on top, because the endpoint could aggregate common payloads in set operations. But then the server always has the option to reject the BATCH with 501, which would then make the client fallback. Well, and a servlet which does WebDAV, needs to do most of the HTTP stack itself anyways ;-) Thanks, Helge -- Helge Hess http://helgehess.euReceived on Wednesday, 28 May 2008 15:48:30 GMT
