Subject: Re: nested DAV:rsr-or and DAV:rsr-merge
A simple list connected by or and merge operators is OK with me.

Subject: nested DAV:rsr-or and DAV:rsr-merge
In a fit of excess generality, I originally proposed that the these
RSR elements be allowed to nest. Since nested DAV:rsr-or's are
identical to a flattened single DAV:rsr-or (and similarly for
DAV:rsr-merge), the only point for this is to allow intermingled
DAV:rsr-or and DAV:rsr-merge. Since I expect few (if any) servers
will implement intermingled DAV:rsr-or's and DAV:rsr-merge's in our
lifetime, it seems more sensible to leave this as a possible future
extension.
So I propose that DAV:rsr-or and DAV:rsr-merge no longer be specified
as nesting in the current protocol.
Comments?
Cheers,
Geoff
