At present, it has gone through a last call, which resulted in a list of issues being recorded: http://www1.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/webdav/collection/bind-issues.html The editors of the document held a series of teleconferences about the specification, minutes from which are available towards the bottom of http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/webdav/ Resolutions to issues have been recorded in the issues list. > Is anyone actively editing or revising the document? At present, no. It has been my intent to work on this as soon as the access control specification is completed. Since the ACL specification is nearly complete, I anticipate working on this specification soon. We'll have another last call, perhaps two, and then it'll get sent off. > BTW...are there any server vendors out there that implement > or are thinking of implementing the BIND method?

None that I know of, though I have always felt that this capability is needed before most document management systems can expose their full functionality via DAV. - Jim
