I'm sure Boris meant something like: http://dav.example.org/foo/document.htm?version-history as the URL for the version history resource, since /http://dav.example.org/foo/document.htm is the URL for the version-controlled resource. Note that we need to be a bit careful with the terms "refer" and "latest" in this context. When a version-controlled resource is checked-in, its content and dead properties are the same as those of the version resource identified by the DAV:target of the version-controlled resource, but the URL refers to the version-controlled resource, not to that version resource, and the DAV:target is not necessarily the "latest" version (new versions can be created in the version history without changing the DAV:target of the versin controlled resource).
