Some time ago, I asked what status code should a BIND request return, if the precondition DAV:locked-update-allowed is violated. Apparently, there has been consensus in that is should be: 423 "Locked" with <D:error><D:locked-update-allowed/></error> in the response-body What if DAV:locked-overwrite-allowed is violated? It could be: 1) 423 "Locked" with <D:error><D:locked-overwrite-allowed/></error> in the response-body 2) 409 "Conflict" with <D:error><D:locked-overwrite-allowed/></error> in the response-body Isn't 2) more reasonable in this case, because this time it is not the resource identified by the request URI which is locked? Thanks, Peter
