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 redirect 
reference resources, one mechanism for allowing a single resource to 
appear in more than one collection.  A redirect reference resource is a 
resource in one collection that responds to most requests by redirecting 
the request (using an HTTP 1.1 302 Found response) to a different 
resource, possibly in a different collection.  'WebDAV Bindings'[B] 
defines bindings, another approach to allowing a single resource to be 
accessed from multiple collections.  'WebDAV Ordered Collections 
Protocol'[OC] provides ordered collections.

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.
