Hmm, I think I know what you mean, however there are cases where you might want this to break: 1) variants. /news/english/ and /news/german/ might be the same resource with different content based on the "access" URL. All get* properties will probably vary. (They can already vary on a resource with a single binding) 2) live props with URI References can report different relative uri references. They are semantically equivalent, but the string value of such a property will differ. What exactly is it, you want to prevent to happen? //Stefan > Cheers, > Geoff > > -----Original Message----- > From: Brian Korver [mailto:briank@xythos.com] > Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2003 6:21 PM > To: WebDAV > Subject: Re: bind draft issues > > > > Geoff and I had a short out-of-band conversation to discuss > the issue I raised when I mentioned "URL properties". > Geoff pointed out that there had been text in the binding > spec that explained the behavior of properties in the > face of different operation, and that it might be good > to revisit the issue and include such explanatory material > in draft. > > Would someone like to volunteer to draft that text? > Since I'm not familiar with the previous text and the > discussion that ensued, perhaps Geoff could explain > what the text should include? > > -brian > briank@xythos.com >
