RE: UPDATE responses for versioned collectionsHmm. Let's phrase it differently: in the absence of the baseline feature, is there any case where an update for a version controlled collection would affect the state of more than one resource (being the collection itself)?

The question is whether removing a binding to a resource is considered a modification to the resource, or a modification to the collection containing the binding. For the purposes of UPDATE, I believe it should be considered a modification to the collection containing the binding only. The "move" (lower case) I was referring to was a multi-resource update that would result from a labeled update, or a baseline update. Such a multi-resource update could result in a logical move of a subtree from one URL to another.

I also don't understand the second part of your reply -- we're talking about response marshalling for UPDATE, not MOVE. What am I missing?

The client would then look at the DAV:version-controlled-binding-set of the DAV:checked-in version of the collection to see how it should update its local state (it needs to do that to differentiate a delete/add from a move). One benefit of this approach is that it doesn't cause a flood of responses if you move a folder with 1000 members (i.e. it would return just the source and destination collections of the move, rather that 1000 added entries and 1000 deleted entries).
