A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the WWW Distributed Authoring and Versioning Working Group of the IETF. Title : WebDAV Bindings Author(s) : J. Slein, E. Whitehead, J. Davis, G. Clemm, C. Fay, J. Crawford, T. Chihaya Filename : draft-ietf-webdav-binding-protocol-00.txt Pages : 22 Date : 23-Aug-99 The WebDAV Distributed Authoring Protocol provides basic support for collections, offering the ability to create and list unordered collections. This specification is one of a group of three specifications that supplement the WebDAV Distributed Authoring Protocol to increase the power of WebDAV collections. This specification defines bindings, one mechanism for allowing a single resource to appear in more than one collection. Bindings make this possible by creating mappings of URIs to resources. The BIND method defined here gives clients the ability to create new bindings to existing resources. [RR] defines redirect references, another approach to allowing a single resource to be accessed from multiple collections. [OC] provides ordered collections. A URL for this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-webdav-binding-protocol-00.txt Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then "get draft-ietf-webdav-binding-protocol-00.txt". A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail. Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-webdav-binding-protocol-00.txt". NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE" command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on how to manipulate these messages. Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the Internet-Draft.
