| -----Original Message----- | It is real lock-null | behavior (which is not implemented by IIS) which is the problem. Well, IIS 5 & 6 also do not support depth infinity locks. In addition, neither implement tagged-list preconditions correctly. At the interop event, Exchange 2000 was even giving me 424 responses to HEAD requests. The point is, of course, there are plenty of other servers that have implemented locknull correctly and fully. You're throwing away a tremendous amount of work away if you pull it from the spec. The other reason I disagree with dropping it is that there had to be a reason that lock-null was chosen as the solution to the lost update problem rather than the alternatives you suggest. Perhaps someone else can speak to this, as I imagine this road has already been traveled. Keith
