The difference is that in XCAP, you leave the decision about what granularity the ACLs will have to the server. It's perfectly ok if the server chooses to have just one for the whole document. But if it wishes to support a higher granularity, it can do that as well. Julian -- <green/>bytes GmbH -- http://www.greenbytes.de -- tel:+492512807760
