From: "James J. Hunt" <jjh@ira.uka.de> The last DTD that I posted is in fact one DTD for each message packed together in one file. There is a lot of common code in it. I could modify it to have one common section that is included by a short message based DTD header for each message where it is necessary. The only place where that is actually needed is if one would like to reuse set and friends in LABEL. I could live with that. OK, sounds like we're all set there then. There are two places in the protocol where I would like to clean up a bit and it is not just a DTD issue. One is that handling of error return information. I would like a top level error element as given at the end of my DTD proposal. That's OK with me. For everyone who hasn't read James' DTD, this just says that you get back: <DAV:error> <DAV:some-error-element/> </DAV:error> I assume this is to allow you to return multiple error elements? Any objections? The second is the way the expand-property report sends information. I do not want to nest prop elements in prop elements. I is just not very clean. I made a suggestion to this effect, but there was almost not comment on it. I think I'll need more than "not very clean". The mechanism in the current protocol is not order sensitive (i.e. does not require that a particular element type be "first"), which is better for extensibility. Cheers, Geoff
