http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6672

           Summary: Transfer: Non deterministic behavior of PutResponse
           Product: WS-Resource Access
           Version: FPWD
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Transfer
        AssignedTo: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org
        ReportedBy: dug@us.ibm.com
         QAContact: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org


PutResponse allows for the current representation to be excluded
if it matches what was passed in on the Put request.  However, it also
allows for extension elements to be there.  Given the presence of just
one element, how does the client know if this one element is the 
current representation or an extension?

proposal: unless some extension is defined, the PutResponse should be
limited to just zero or one child elements under the PutResponse element.

In other words, no extension by default:
zero children == new representation is what was passed in on the request
one child == here's the new representation.
