I am working on the next version of the HTTP PATCH method proposal: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-dusseault-http-patch-00.txt We've had some discussions amongst WebDAV people of the best way for clients to discover server feature support. In this case, the client wants to discover: - if the server supports PATCH at all - if so, what delta or diff formats can be used on this resource. For that purpose, is a new header on OPTIONS still considered to be the way to go? Can a server omit this header on responses to OPTIONS * if it only supports the feature in part of its namespace? (E.g. if a java servlet supplies support for this feature only in the namespace hosted by that servlet) Any other comments on the draft are welcome as well. Thanks, Lisa Dusseault
