<< As I recall, the DAV Explorer client <http://www.ics.uci.edu/~webdav/> uses lock discovery. I believe it's smart enough to do lock discovery if a resource is locked, and DAV Explorer doesn't have the lock token. It then tries the lock token on the off chance the requesting principal actually owns the lock. >> Just a tangent... I'm sure Jim know this, but I'd just like to warn other client developers that servers are not obligated to expose the lock-token in the lock-discovery property. Servers might chose not to expose the tokens so as to avoid the situation described in section 7.6. Make sure your clients can handle a server not returning the lock token in the lock-discovery property.
