Actually LOCK/UNLOCK is performed against a resource whereas GRABSERVER/UNGRABSERVER is not. Perhaps they couylf be treated as a special case using * (as with OPTIONS), but I generally like the idea of sticking with LOCK for a couple of reasons: 1. While PUTs will be rare, GETs will be very common. 2. WEBDAV sessions will likely be long lived (cvomparitively). 3. There would be no bound on the numder of resources that would be tied up just so that one could be updated. --- gjw@wnetc.com / http://www.wnetc.com/home.html If you're going to reinvent the wheel, at least try to come up with a better one.
