last calling WebDAV mounting spec, was I-D ACTION:draft-reschke-webdav-mount-01.txt

From: Julian Reschke <julian.reschke@gmx.de> · Date: Sat, 17 Sep 2005 10:19:40 +0200

Hi,

I just submitted a new revision of the WebDAV mount spec. From the abstract:

'This document specifies a mechanism and a document format that enables 
Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) servers to send 
"mounting" information to a WebDAV client. The protocol is designed to 
work on any platform and with any combination of browser and WebDAV 
client, relying solely on the well-understood dispatch of documents 
through their MIME type.'

Since the first draft last month, this draft has been reviewed and 
implemented in two WebDAV clients (one of which is a reference 
implementation for the Microsoft Webfolder client, appearing as an 
appendix in the spec). It has also been implemented in the WebDAV stack 
of SAP Netweaver KM.

At this point I believe the spec is complete and I plan to submit it to 
the RFC Editor for publication as Informational RFC in three weeks. 
Feedback appreciated.

HTML version:

Best regards, Julian

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.

	Title		: Mounting WebDAV (Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning) servers
	Author(s)	: J. Reschke
	Filename	: draft-reschke-webdav-mount-01.txt
	Pages		: 14
	Date		: 2005-9-16

This document specifies a mechanism and a document format that
    enables Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) servers to
    send "mounting" information to a WebDAV client.  The protocol is
    designed to work on any platform and with any combination of browser
    and WebDAV client, relying solely on the well-understood dispatch of
    documents through their MIME type.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in

or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-reschke-webdav-mount-01.txt".

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
