The Distributed Authoring and Versioning protocol [WEBDAV] defines
simple mechanisms to assign and retrieve values for properties. This
document presents requirements for a WebDAV extension to support
efficient searching for resources based on WEBDAV properties and
content. These requirements are intended to be the basis for the DAV
Searching and Location (DASL) protocol.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
