It doesn't have the same semantics as a dead property; it doesn't even have to be *stored* like a dead property; it can be generated on the fly, like a CGI script. If the resource in question is a frozen revision, fine; the "preserve all properties on frozen revisions" requirement doesn't make sense for live properties, certainly not ones which are derived from the states of other resources. -- /====================================================================\ |John (Francis) Stracke |My opinions are my own.|S/MIME supported | |Software Retrophrenologist|=========================================| |Netscape Comm.
