Quick question/point: what > should a server return for a CHECKOUT against the wrong type > of resource? e.g. should I return 409 (Conflict) if somebody > does a CHECKOUT on a VCR? Is there a specific <DAV:error code> > to return for this situation? FWIW: If the VCR is already checked out, I chose to return 409 Conflict <DAV:must-not-be-checked-out/>. If a client sends CHECKOUT to a resource that is not under version control I return 403 Forbidden <DAV:must-be-version-or-version-controlled-resource/>. For a complete list of the 403/409 split (which was derived somewhat arbitrarily) see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/ietf-dav-versioning/2000OctDec/0125.html Tim
