Well I've read the definition of a variant, and a version is certainly not a variant of a version-controlled resource. And I've read the definition of the vary: header and it talks about the cache-ability of the result. What am I missing? If DeltaV implies that a version is a variant of a version-controlled resource then that must be fixed. Regards, Tim
