[Bug 77] Do Bind operations change the getlastmodified or getetag property values

http://ietf.cse.ucsc.edu:8080/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=77





------- Additional Comments From julian.reschke@greenbytes.de  2005-02-03 10:09 -------
REBIND is like MOVE, and MOVE doesn't have this restriction in RFC2518.  So it
would be incorrect to add this as a new requirement.

Also note that existing (compliant) servers already change the last mod date in
certain cases, such as because they use it internally to generate an ETag.
Adding new restrictions would make these servers non-compliant for no obvious
benefit, so I would reject any proposal to change this in RFC2518bis.
