Well, actually, the URL of http://warlok.ds.boeing.com/~howie/ is a correct URL for a collection, since it has a trailing slash. But, what you're probably asking is whether the resource identified by http://warlok.ds.boeing.com/~howie/ needs to be of type WebDAV collection. The implication of the requirement in section 4.3 (no namespace gaps) combined with the requirement in section 4.1 that namespaces must behave as DAV collections even if they weren't created with WebDAV, is that yes, the resource identified by http://warlok.ds.boeing.com/~howie/ needs to be of type WebDAV collection if http://warlok.ds.boeing.com/~howie/a/b/c is WebDAV-compliant. - Jim
