What is not good about that? TRACK is specific to a legacy version of IIS, and not documented anywhere (right?). So, I think the proper way to deal with this is either to be silent, or to add this as an implementor's note in an appendix. Requiring implementors to put in workarounds for something that is neither documented nor shipping in current server versions is really hard to accept. BR, Julian
