Hi Everybody,

I want to access some documents in a WebDAV folder using my web =
application.

The word document or xls document to be accessed is in a WebDAV folder. =
I want to provide option for the user to open, edit and save the =
documents in the webdav folder through my web application. The document =
names are displayed in a web page and when user clicks on the document =
name, the document is opened from the webdav folder in a new browser =
window - the document is opened using word plugin of IE. Now after user =
makes some changes when user clicks on 'Save' button word tries to save =
the document in its temporary folder rather in the Web DAV folder. I do =
not want the user to use the 'Save As' option of word to save the =
document in web dav folder. Kindly let me know what extra handling i =
should make so that the MS Word active x component shall open the =
document as if it is opening it from Web Dav Folder.

When the document is opened from IE using 'Open as Web Fodler' option, =
word allows to save the changes in web folder with simply 'Save' option. =
I want to simulate the same method when user opens the document using my =
web application.

Please let me know how is this possible.=20

Best Regards,
Parvathi

Whether or not Office opens a document read-only (as above) or 
read-write depends on the particular Office version and possibly some 
local settings on the client. As far as I can tell, there's nothing a 
server can do to enforce a particular behaviour of the client.

That being said; if it's ok to send HTML + JScript, an HTML page sent by 
the server may be able to directly instantiate Word and let it open 
directly the document. Never have done this myself, though.

Hope this helps,

Julian

As nobody else responded...: no, I'm not aware of any way to fix this. I 
think this is a bug (unless the document encoding used by Word indeed is 
the default defined for text/html over HTTP; is it?).

It would be really nice if the WG chairs could come up with a statement 
about where we are and what needs to be done to proceed. Last Call ended 
a month ago; and nothing has happened since. Also note that we're 
already 8 months behind the schedule outlined in the charter (and that 
charter has been updated just a year ago).

If the expectation is that one of the authors submits the document 
directly to our Area Director (Ted), that's fine with me. I'd just like 
to be made aware of it.

Hi Everybody,

There are two ways which i know, can be made at the client end to enable
users to open word application seperately from a browser window.

1. Change the File Type setting on the Folder Options from explorer and
Uncheck the option of opening word in same browser window for MS Office
document types.

2. Enable 'Initialzie and script Active X controls not marked as Safe' in
the security settings of IE browser. Then using javascript code, we can pass
the url of the document to be opened and invoke the office application
seperately.

But it shall not be a good way to enforce users to make some settings in
their browsers to allow web applications invoke some Active X component on
the client machine.

Moreover even in the above TWO cases, when user opens a document from a
WebDAV folder, user is not able to save the document back in the same WebDAV
folder by clicking on the SAVE button of MS Office application.

Only when the document is opened using IE as 'Open as Web Folder', user is
able to make changes to the document and save the document by just clicking
on SAVE button. One way that i have found so far is to open a folder using
AnchorClick object of Microsoft, as a Web Folder view.

But my problem is to open a document from a Web Folder and not a Web Folder.
So far i have not found any answer to this.

Looking for a response soon,

Regards,
Parvathi.

I just noticed that there's indeed a meeting scheduled (for Wednesday 
morning), but I don't remember seeing an agenda or an announcement over 
here (or somewhere else for that matter). So is the meeting really 
taking place?

Wondering,

Julian

Hmm, that seems to be revising the semantics of PUT to be 
non-idempotent; doesn't seem like a good idea...

It's IMHO certainly the right thing to do with PUT on version-controlled 
resources.

Let's take a look at the definition 
(<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/rfc2616.html#rfc.section.9.1.2>):

--
9.1.2 Idempotent Methods

Methods can also have the property of "idempotence" in that (aside from 
error or expiration issues) the side-effects of N > 0 identical requests 
is the same as for a single request. The methods GET, HEAD, PUT and 
DELETE share this property. Also, the methods OPTIONS and TRACE SHOULD 
NOT have side effects, and so are inherently idempotent.

However, it is possible that a sequence of several requests is 
non-idempotent, even if all of the methods executed in that sequence are 
idempotent. (A sequence is idempotent if a single execution of the 
entire sequence always yields a result that is not changed by a 
reexecution of all, or part, of that sequence.) For example, a sequence 
is non-idempotent if its result depends on a value that is later 
modified in the same sequence.

A sequence that never has side effects is idempotent, by definition 
(provided that no concurrent operations are being executed on the same 
set of resources).
--

So if we'd classify the effect of adding something to the version 
history the same way as writing something to an audit log, that would be 
fine.

I should also clarify that the issue only occurs for auto-versioned 
resources. That is, if I explicitly CHECKOUT a resource, do multiple 
PUTs, then apply CHECKIN, I get exactly one new version (no matter how 
often PUT was applied). That should be fine, right?

Best regards, Julian

Hi,

unfortunately, there's still no feedback on whether there actually is a 
WG meeting in Minneapolis (no announcement, no agenda).

In case it *does* take place, here are the details:

Time: 2005-03-09T15:00:00Z (9am local time) (ics: 
<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/webdav.ics>

Room: Duluth

Text confererencing instructions: <http://www.xmpp.org/ietf-chat.html>

Audio cast: <http://videolab.uoregon.edu/events/ietf/ietf626.m3u> (see 
<http://videolab.uoregon.edu/events/ietf/> for technical information).

Below is a list of topics I'd like to see discussed.

Best regards, Julian


-- snip --



Proposal for a WebDAV WG meeting agenda

I think we need to have a meta-discussion on how the working group 
currently operates; and also discuss current technical issues with drafts.


A. Meta

The charter (<http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/webdav-charter.html>) 
has been revised just a year ago and we already have missed all milestones.

A1. What are the reasons for the apparent inability to ship specs in time?

A2. Do we need to re-adjust the charter (again)?

A3. Is the Working Group still able to fulfill it's goals, or would it 
make more sense to let the individual spec authors proceed with their 
work outside an IETF working group (for instance, the revision to 
RFC2396 was done that way)?


B. Technical Issues

B1. BIND

As far as I can tell, WG last-call has finished, and the issues that 
were raised after end of last-call do not qualify as blockers as they 
have been answered with no feedback and have no votes on them. Thus, 
draft 11 should have been sent to the IETF for publication (see 
<http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/2005JanMar/0278.html>).

B2. QUOTA

This one has been drastically simplified and thus only needs very minor 
edits for WG last-call. If the WG is really interested in getting it out 
of the door, the author(s) and the active mailing list members should 
cooperate to get the remaining issues resolved (last issues list: 
<http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/2005JanMar/0194.html>).

B3. REDIRECT

As far as I can tell, we (greenbytes) are the only ones actively working 
on this (both spec and implementation). I think the spec is very close 
to be finished; but I would prefer to have it fully implemented before 
proceeding.

B4. RFC2518bis vs separate locking document

The latest draft of RFC2518bis has expired and I haven't seen any 
activity on it for a long time. A statement from the authors would be 
appreciated.

Over a year ago I suggested an alternative approach: split RFC2518 base 
and locking protocol, then work on RFC2518bis (RFC2518 minus locking) 
and a separate locking document in parallel. RFC2518bis could probably 
be published as Draft Standard, while LOCKING (which has most of the 
changes) would need to re-start as Proposed Standard. The proposed 
LOCKING document is almost done, and could be finished with the backing 
of the WG in just a few weeks (see latest edits at 
<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-reschke-webdav-locking-latest.html>). 
I hereby ask the Working Group chairs to either fix the apparent process 
issues with RFC2518bis, or to go with the proposal made by me.

B5. PROPERTY DATATYPES

The latest draft
(<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-reschke-webdav-property-datatypes-08.html>) 
has been submitted in September 2004 to the RFC Editor for publication 
as an Experimental RFC (see status at
<http://www.rfc-editor.org/queue.html#reschke-webdav-property-datatypes>).

In the meantime I have learned that it's unlikely to be processed (which 
doesn't mean published) any time soon; this part of the RFC Editor's 
publication queue more or less is stalled. Alternatives to waiting (at 
least another year if things progress the same way as in the last 
months) are (a) making this a WG work item or (b) submitting it to our 
Area Director. As this draft describes both the consensus of the WG (as 
far as I can tell) *and* running and deployed code, (b) seems to be very 
attractive.

Document Review Process Update

</bold>

All Applications Area Working Group chairs:


Over the last few years the IESG has been looking at ways to improve
our

document review process.  The effort is described here:


http://psg.com/~mrw/PROTO-Team/


During today's open apparea meeting I announced that Ted and I will be
using

the PROTO Team process for all new documents brought to us by your
working

groups from now on.  That means that you as chairs have a few specific
tasks

to complete as part of the document review process:


1. Completing a write-up describing the document that you want the
IESG to

review:

http://psg.com/~mrw/PROTO-Team/WGChair-Writeup.html


2. Shepherding resolution of AD review comments:

http://psg.com/~mrw/PROTO-Team/ad-review-draft.txt


3. Shepherding resolution of IESG review comments:

http://psg.com/~mrw/PROTO-Team/discuss-draft.txt


On our end, Ted and I will strive to perform our reviews of your
documents

before or during the IETF last call period.  This will hopefully speed

things up a bit once the last call has been completed.


Please review the material described above and let me know if you have
any

questions.  Remember, too, that I am covering all of Ted's working
groups

while he is enjoying paternity leave.


Feel free to share this with your groups.


-Scott-

There is a meeting, but I didn't get any suggestions for the agenda  
until now.  Thanks for the input and broadcasting this info.

With all due respect, it's kind of optimistic to expect others to make 
suggestions for a meeting that wasn't announced. Working group chairs 
are expected to post an agenda well before the meeting so that 
participants can prepare (in particular, to help deciding whether it 
makes sense to attend at all). As far as I can tell, the final deadline 
for this IETF meeting was over a week ago (see 
<http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ietf/current/msg34469.html>).

Hello everyone,

has anything been said about the order of dead properties so far? When a
PROPFIND with DAV:allprop is issued on a resource, should a server
return the dead properties in the order in which they where defined, or
should the order be arbitrary? Since the element names have to be unique
for one resource, I guess it wouldn't make much sense to interpret any
logic into the order of the property elements, but since the order of
elements in XML documents is defined, some applications might expect the
properties in the order in which they were inserted.

Any ideas on that?

thanks,
    Heiko

In general, WebDAV does not take advantage of the ordering of XML 
elements when a single element occurs multiple times inside the parent 
element.  As well as allowing any order for the properties of a 
resource (live or dead), the server may put resources in any order in a 
Depth 1 or Depth Infinity PROPFIND response.  Servers aren't required 
to take the order of property changes in a PROPPATCH request into 
effect, either.  In some cases the spec explicitly says that order 
isn't important (e.g. section 8.1, order of resources in PROPFIND 
response) but in other cases it's silent.

Note that DTDs do make XML element order clear but only for elements 
with different names.  When elements might occur multiple times (as 
with 'response' in 'multistatus') or when the parent element content is 
ANY, the DTD doesn't say anything about ordering those elements.

   <!ELEMENT multistatus (response+, responsedescription?) >
    <!ELEMENT response (href, ((href*, status)|(propstat+)),
    responsedescription?) >
   <!ELEMENT propstat (prop, status, responsedescription?) >
   <!ELEMENT prop ANY >

We'd have to add extraneous text specifically to say what additional 
ordering is required, and in the absence of that text agents must 
accept any ordering.

Not so. <http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/rfc2518.html#rfc.section.8.2.p.3>:

"Instruction processing MUST occur in the order instructions are

Ordering isn't significant. Is there anything inside RFC2518 that 
indicates otherwise?

We did announce the upcoming meeting Jan 27, but it appears I did 
forget to ask for agenda input at that time.  I apologize for that.

That said, the slate of documents is fairly static, so what I want to 
do is go over the open issues with the current documents. Hopefully 
there will be enough people there to make this a productive exercise.

Well, what you did is that you reported that you asked for a meeting 
slot. I wouldn't call that an announcement. It's also not on 
www.webdav.org (where people would probably expect it).

I'm unable to attend in person but will be logged in to the WebDAV text 
conferencing room. From reading past logs, it appears that this isn't 
the easiest, or most productive way to participate, but I'm willing to 
make the effort. Unfortunately my sound card died recently and I will 
not be able to make use of the audiocast. I will, however, log the 
session and post it to the working group mailing list.

Who will be acting as speaker for the text conference attendees? Is 
anyone else planning on participating in this fashion?


Cheers,
Elias

I think it's worth to try to borrow somebody else's soundcard-equipped 
machine. I tried the audiocast on Monday and it's great for following 
the discussion.

I hope some of the attendees will monitor the chat service.

Yes, we always get a Jabber scribe and that scribe (or a helper) will 
tell the room when people in the Jabber chat have important stuff to 
say.  It *is* difficult, however.  (It's certainly not the easiest way 
to overcome differences and resolve difficult problems.  For that, I 
highly recommend some face to face time when possible.)

OK,

almost a week has passed since the meeting, and no minutes have been 
posted (will there be any????).  The Jabber log is available from 
<http://www.xmpp.org/ietf-logs/webdav@ietf.xmpp.org/2005-03-09.html> but 
that's not a replacement.

I listened to the audio cast (archived at 
<http://limestone.uoregon.edu/ftp/pub/videolab/video/ietf62/ietf62-ch6-wed-am.mp3>, 
discussion starts at around 22min), and here's *my* summary:

- Only few people attended (13 physically, a few on the text chat) - I 
don't find that surprising at all, given the fact that it wasn't 
announced in time, and no agenda was posted. In particular, with the 
exception of Lisa Dusseault, none of the authors of the current working 
group documents were present.

- The meeting ended after less than 20 minutes (instead of the 2,5 hours 
that were scheduled) and basically no technical questions were 
discussed. Considering the amount of time and money one would have spent 
in order to physically attend the meeting, I'll just note that I'm happy 
that I stayed at home.

At this point, I think it's up to the working group chairs to state how 
they want to continue with this WG (or, if they don't indend to, that as 
well). What should be obvious is that we need to change a lot of things 
if we want to fulfill what's been outlined in the charter.

Note that we don't need a WG to do useful work; but having a WG that is 
incapable of making any decisions (or shipping documents that are ready) 
means that the active contributors are basically wasting their time 
fighting process barriers instead if doing meaningful technical work.


Best regards and feedback appreciated,

Julian

I'm not too surprised at the lack of detailed discussion at the WG meeting
-- this is clearly attributable to the lack of an agenda, and the lack of
consensus on which document to push forward at present.

The deeper issue is whether this remains a useful working group. This
depends, in turn, on whether the group is able to perform useful work (I am
not as concerned about meeting deadlines, so long as work is progressing).

My personal feeling is that the current working group is able to perform
useful work. The recent discussion on the bind specification highlights
this, and I'll also point to the fact that we've been able to issue about an
RFC a year for the past few years. This is pretty good for a volunteer
organization, and better than many other IETF WGs.

Some point to the lack of review of the bind specification in last call. I
think this is largely due to current implementors on the list not generally
viewing that specification as a priority, and hence the main parties of
interest are the specification editors and one or two other long-time
contributors. I would not view this lack of last-call review as indicative
of the WG's inability to make progress.

My personal feeling is that this working group needs firm direction from its
chairs on what to work on next, and it also needs commitment to get
completed drafts through the approval process. I've volunteered to work on
the bind specification to get it to RFC status. Beyond this, the most
constructive step is to determine which draft to work on next.

My vote is for the quota protocol, since we have at least two very
interested implementors who want to see this completed.

- Jim

PS - When I was chair, it was rare to get meeting minutes out very quickly.
It's boring, tedious work.

Hi Jim,  this is great.  I appreciate your willingness to work on this 
and look forward to seeing your draft.  The other thing we'll need to 
finish Bind is a couple of serious reviews.

That sounds good to me, also because the quota protocol is quite 
simple.  Again, we need a couple reviews to finish this one off.   Jim 
Luther, are you still out there?  With your early involvement in quota, 
it would be great to have a review now, even if there are no design 
issues. (At this point, finding nits is also needed).  Anybody else?

Thanks,
Lisa

What kind of draft are you expecting? The current draft has passed the 
working group last-call, and as far as I can tell, there are no open 
issues (according to the definition in Joe's last call plan).

> finish Bind is a couple of serious reviews.

This spec has been reviewed so many times that it will be hard to find 
any new reviewer.

- First, it has gone through a working group last call back in 2000 (?)

- Then, in 2003, once Geoff Clemm had picked it up again, it has been 
reviewed and commented on by the current implementors (SAP Netweaver, 
Apache/Slide); see messages around 
<http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/2003JulSep/0132.html>.

- Then, when approaching last-call, it has been discussed again and 
again on the mailing list, culminating with the last call this January.

As far as I can tell, this draft clearly represents WG consensus *and* 
running code, and there's absolutely no reason not to submit it.

Anyway, could you please also comment on Jim's:

"My personal feeling is that this working group needs firm direction 
from its chairs on what to work on next, and it also needs commitment to 
get completed drafts through the approval process."

If we're really interested in that spec, we should ask the authors to 
comment on the feedback that came in for the previous draft, to resolve 
the remaining issues and to prepare a new draft for working-group last call.

Hi Julian,

I know you think that there are issues remaining on Quota as well as no  
issues remaining on Bind.  I do not agree with you on Bind, and I am  
not sure that there are open issues on Quota worth pursuing.  Brian has  
done a slow but decent job of responding to the issues you've raised  
and if he followed your approach, then he would simply declare the rest  
of them closed.  Are you willing to compromise on any of the issues  
you've raised on Quota in order to see it completed?  Can you get other  
people to review Quota and either agree with your open issues or state  
that there are no blocking issues?

I agree this working group needs good leadership but it also needs  
volunteers -- more than just two or three volunteers to do the work of  
writing and reviewing -- and we need some more compromises.  I  
apologize again that we did not have an agenda for the WG meeting in  
Minneapolis, but I will point out again that we got no suggestions for  
the agenda until the week before the meeting.  Previous meetings which  
were better organized still had attendance problems and a poor record  
of accomplishing any progress. For example, in Washington we had the  
same issues we have today, the same few people participating.  We could  
have cancelled the Minneapolis meeting rather than create an agenda,  
but as for myself, I wanted to give the WG one last chance for parties  
to get together and communicate and compromise.

Lisa

Lisa, we have a WG process for defining what an open issue is. This has 
been outlined by Joe, and everybody agreed to stick to it. Based on that 
process, there are no issues. If you disagree with this statement, 
please be more specific.

...in which case we'd start a last call, open a Bugzilla section for it, 
and follow our process for dealing with them. Fine with me.

Please do us all a favor and please read what issues exactly I raised 
(see 
<http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/2005JanMar/0103.html>).

Well, in which case I'll have to point out that there was no 
announcement whatsover. Please do not complain about the fact that 
*others* haven't been doing the work that's supposed to be done by the 
chairs.

By the way: there was exactly one agenda proposal, and as far as I can 
tell, it has been ignored by the chairs.

I guess we'll continue to disagree here. There was no announcement, no 
agenda, and the meeting was closed after less than 20 minutes although 
there were unanswered questions on the Jabber chat (by Bernard D. and 
myself).

It would be nice if we could now get back to the open issues we have to 
resolve. How about starting with the agenda that was proposed by me in 
<http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/2005JanMar/0293.html>?

I split this out into a separate thread so it's easier to find.

My take on what I've seen in the last several months of the WebDAV working
group is that if there was to be a BOF session today, I don't see any way
that a working group would get approved.  A couple of people would have
shown up to the meeting, no one except the person asking for the BOF would
have agreed to edit drafts, and there might only be weak hums for "is this
interesting" and "is this a good technical approach".

As far as where we are now, some of the current drafts might make much
better progress as individual submissions.  Keep in mind that in the current
process the WG chair has to shepard WG drafts through.  As much as editors
may not like this, it means that you have to get at least one WG chair fired
up enough about your draft to take on this responsibility.   That is a sales
job, not a technical job.  However, as individual submissions, all of the
process is up to the AD.  The downside for editors is that ADs are pretty
busy, and you have to sell your work to them.  Also, there's no way to force
consensus on an AD, since they can just say "no".  

My guess for BIND is that either Ted or Scott would want clarification on a
couple of the interoperability questions that Lisa has raised, regardless of
whether the answer can be inferred by a fully-informed reader.  This means
that moving to the individual process might or might not streamline the
process, depending upon how willing you were to make changes that they asked
for.

Frankly, I don't think the working group process is adding much in the way
of value for the drafts we are working on, compared with other WGs I've
participated in.  As such, it may be needless bureaucracy, and we ought to
think about decommissioning it.

Joe,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the WebDAV WG, and its future
direction. Thank you as well for your contributions to this working group as
its Co-Chair. I know well that this is a time consuming and often thankless
task.

But (and you knew a "but" was coming :-) I do disagree with you on several
points.


> My take on what I've seen in the last several months of the 
> WebDAV working group is that if there was to be a BOF session 
> today, I don't see any way that a working group would get

Irrelevant. In 1996 there was a clear and present need for an interoperable
web authoring standard. At that time, the WebDAV BOF had a standing room
crowd. Of course there would be fewer people today, just as it would be hard
to have a broadly attended FTP BOF, or Telnet BOF. We're not in that phase
of development. We're in completion mode, not ramp up mode. It's never
exciting to dot the final "i" and cross the final "t".

> As far as where we are now, some of the current drafts might

This is very unclear. The progress of individual submissions in the RFC
editor's queue, once they have received IESG approval, is glacial. They
never turn into RFCs. Working group documents fare much better in terms of
responsiveness.

A Chair assumes certain duties when they take on the position of Chair. 

I do not see any process RFC that states that document authors are required
to generate enthusiasm in their Chairs.

I agree, and applaud that you, as Chair, are helping to focus the discussion
of the working group on productive, tangible work items.

I disagree. This working group has had a good track record over the past few
years of shipping specifications to RFC status (3648 in 12/2003, 3744 in
5/2004). These specifications have had multiple implementations, and are in
shipping code that meet thousand's of people's needs on a daily basis.

The issues raised in the recent last calls have been subtle, and resolving
them has significantly enhanced the quality and value of the final
specifications. IMO, this is evidence of a working group doing what it's
supposed to do: providing careful, informed review, and producing top
quality specifications.

I think the WebDAV Working Group can very usefully serve two more purposes,
neither of which needs to take much time.

1) Complete BIND.
2) Complete Quota.

Both are very close to completion. Once these two are done, then it seems
reasonable to disband WebDAV WG. Given how close these two documents are to
being done, it would be a waste of all of the effort that has gone into them
to date to stop their development as WG items now.

Julian Reschke and I just chatted on the phone. My perception is that we
both agree that it makes sense to discuss the semantics of all DAV
properties under BIND, UNBIND, and REBIND. There seem to be differences in
desired behavior between properties whose semantics originated in WeBDAV
(which are typically defined on the resource), and ones inherited from HTTP
(like getlastmodified) which depend on representations of the resource. It
is likely this discussion will lead to modifications to the bind
specification.

Julian said he'd take the first whack at summarizing the technical points.

In my reading of the -06 specification, I'm not able to see any mention of
this.

The only concern I see is that the definition of quota-available-bytes is
defined in terms of "disk space" available and not "storage space"
available. Then again, even storage media that aren't disks are typically
referred to as drives these days (e.g., "thumb drive" for RAM-based storage
sticks), so maybe it's not an issue.

Seems to me the motivation is to ensure that collections know how much space
is available in their namspace, thereby providing clients an aggregated
understanding of available storage space associated with a particular
namespace.

It's not clear to me whether you object to this, or are seeking additional
clarification text.

Let me suggest:

"Since there are many factors that affect the storage used by a set of
resources, including automatic compression, the size of associated metadata,
and server-inserted content (such as that created by PHP code) in the
on-the-wire representation of resources, clients are advised to not depend
on the value of DAV:quota-used-bytes being the sum of the
DAV:getcontentlength properties for resources contained by a collection."

I agree. The DAV:quota-used-bytes is a "computed" property according to
RFC3253, and I agree it would be useful to explicitly state this.

I recommend adding the following sentence to the end of section 4, as a new
paragraph:

"This value of this property is computed (see Section 1.4.3 of [RFC3253] for
the definition of computed property). A 403 Forbidden response is
RECOMMENDED for attempts to write a protected property, and the server
SHOULD include an XML error body as defined by DeltaV [RFC3253] with the
<DAV:cannot-modify-protected-property/> precondition tag."

I mostly agree. I think the reference to RFC3253 for computed and protected
properties should go in Section 1.1, not in the "requirements" section.

So, I recommend deleting the following sentence from Section 1.2:

"This specification requires WebDAV because it requires PROPFIND support and
relies on the WebDAV definition of collections and properties, including the
definitions for live and protected properties (see section 1.4.2 of
[RFC3253] for the definition of protected properties)."

I recommend adding the following sentence to Section 1.1, as a new
paragraph.

"The definition of live property is provided in [RFC2518]. The definition of
protected and computed properties is provided in [RFC3253], Section 1.4."

Yes, I'm still lurking. I'll give the latest quota draft and Julian's  
issues at <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/

I just checked, and the last mention of it seems to be in 
<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-webdav-quota-06.html#rfc.section.3.p.5>:

``Note that there may be a number of distinct but overlapping limits, 
which may even include physical media limits. When reporting 
DAV:quota-available-bytes, the server is at liberty to choose any of 
those limits but SHOULD do so in a repeatable way. The rule may be 
configured per repository, or may be "choose the smallest number".

If a resource has no quota enforced or unlimited storage ("infinite 
limits"), the server MAY choose not to return this property (404 Not 
Found response in Multi-Status), although this specification RECOMMENDS 
that servers return some appropriate value (e.g. the amount of free disc 
space). A client cannot entirely assume that there is no quota enforced 
on a resource that does not have this property, but might as well act as 
if there is no quota.''

I think it would be a useful feature if a client could detect whether a 
write failed because of disk full rather than quota exceeded (Unix and 
NFS4 status codes allow the same distinction, see RFC3530, 
"NFS4ERR_DQUOT" and "NFS4ERR_NOSPC").

I'd like to understand why it's only optional on non-collections.

:-) That's only *one* issue. The main problem here is that in many qutoa 
systems (such as the Unix one), the DAV:quota-used-bytes property on a 
collection will work completely differently and will have nothing to do 
whatsoever with the *members* of that collection. Check for instance:

<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-webdav-quota-06.html#rfc.section.4.p.3>:

``Note that there may be a number of distinct but overlapping sets of 
resources for which a DAV:quota-used-bytes is maintained (e.g. "all 
files with a given owner", "all files with a given group owner", etc.). 
The server is at liberty to choose any of those sets but SHOULD do so in 
a repeatable way. The rule may be configured per repository.''

So for a server that implements user-based quota (which IMHO is the most 
common way to implement it), DAV:quota-used-bytes usually will be the 
*same* for a collection and it's members.

Hi,

I've been meaning to add my few cents to this thread since it was first 
posted and only now have found the time (danged work schedule) - my full 
response will be split across a couple / few thread and messages but can 
basically be summarized by the following two points:
* I think the WG may be sick, but it isn't dead (or necessarily dying, 
for that matter, but perhaps tired...)
* There is work to be done and doing so within the context of the WG 
makes far more sense than otherwise

I can only speak for myself but without grant money, or the backing of 
my employer (unlikely at best), I'll *never* be able to attend in person 
unless a meeting is held in the Bay Area.

 From what I can tell, neither the proposed agenda (Julians') nor the 
stated agenda (from Jabber log) was followed closely or, at the very 
least items on the agenda were only addressed superficially. It would 
appear that items were tabled prematurely while there were still open 
questions and discussion to be finished. IMHO, the standing agenda for 
*any* working group meeting should be:
(1) review the charter and current status / progress on WG deliverables 
and stated milestones
(2) discuss each of the active documents in turn
    (a) address any open issues or concerns, seeking partial resolutions 
wherever possible to be ratified by the larger WG on the discussion list
    (b) make note of who is volunteering to follow up on action items, 
i.e. shephard the ensuing discussion on the mailing list, make edits to 
documents, etc.
(3) drink

Given the passionate discussion on the mailing list over some of the 
existing issues, I find it hard to believe that 2.5 hours would be 
enough time to meet in person and give a fair treatment to everything 
that should be on the table.

I'll address this a little more in subsequent emails but, as above, I 
feel there is significant benefit to working within the context of a 
formal IETF WG (visibility, established process, etc.). From what I can 
tell, going it alone greatly reduces the chance that any draft will make 
much progress in the long term.


Inlakesh,
Elias

So, if I understand you correctly, you're advocating the addition of a
single additional error code to cover the storage media full case?


> I'd like to understand why it's only optional on non-collections.

Seems to me this is obvious. There are four cases:

1) No support collections, no support others: You don't implement the
specification

2) Support collections, no support others: Frequent case, collections have
quota information

3) Support collections, support others: Possibly frequent case, all
resources give quota and used

4) No support collections, support others: This case isn't allowed in the
specification, but seems unlikely to me, since collection support is so
useful


So, is it that you think case #4 is useful, and want it to be allowed? Or
are you seeking clarification text to be added to the draft?

Ah, good point.

Let me try again with some suggested text (the second paragraph is new, and
based on your previous text):

"Since there are many factors that affect the storage used by a set of
resources, including automatic compression, the size of associated metadata,
and server-inserted content (such as that created by PHP code) in the
on-the-wire representation of resources, clients are advised to not depend
on the value of DAV:quota-used-bytes being the sum of the
DAV:getcontentlength properties for resources contained by a collection. 

Additionally, because there may be a number of distinct but overlapping sets
of resources for which a DAV:quota-used-bytes is maintained (see Section 4),
there may be no correlation between the size of the resources in a
collection and DAV:quota-used-bytes. For example a server that implements
user-based quotas, DAV:quota-used-bytes usually will be the same for a
collection and it's members."

If you have quibbles with this text, please suggest modifications to it in
spec. language (it's easier than reading your mind :-)

- Jim

My personal preference was to leave disk limits out of quota, and to 
define separate properties and precondition codes for them. However, if 
people feel this is overkill spec-wise, the ability to distinguish both 
cases when an operation fails would be welcome (and a cheap addition).

Why wouldn't the non-collection resources have quota information?

Yes.

I'd simply like the spec to be as simple as possible. Adding a special 
distinction for case 2 doesn't seem to be that useful.

No, the text is just fine. An alternative is not to say anything at all, 
but if we do say something, it at least needs to be correct :-)

But, on the other hand, it's necessary. The Subversion guys just spent a 
lot of energy trying to design (and partly implement) support for a 
specific locking feature (lock null resources) that this WG has 
deprecated several years ago; yet all the (well, some) implementors see 
is RFC2518.

Data point: I submitted 
<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-reschke-webdav-property-datatypes-08.html> 
to the RFC Editor on Sept, 27, 2004 (almost 6 months ago). It's now at 
position 19 out of 36 entries in the state "INDEPENDENT SUBMISSIONS 
UNDER RFC EDITOR REVIEW", of which the oldest ones are from 2002). Note 
that this is just a waiting queue, not really a publication queue -- 
once it get's through this queue, it will be sent back to the 
Applications Area Director (right now Ted Hardie).

In particular, I'd argue that a draft being on the WG's charter SHOULD 
generate enough enthusiasm to help it getting through the process... 
Alternatively, the chairs should update the charter.

In which case we should also discuss what's the best way to make 
progress on RFC2518bis outside a WG.

Is there anybody who would implement a separate property for disk limit 
(in addition to, or instead of a property for quota)?  I haven't seen a 
direct request for this, it's only been brought up in the context of 
whether or not the quota property should exclude this concept.

I'd be happy with a separate error for the separate case.  That doesn't 
seem like overkill.

I attempted to send this last week but don't see it in the WG list 
archive so I'm sending again.

For the proceedings: note that there was no presentation material, so 
these minutes complete the record for the proceedings.

------

Agenda
  - Agenda bashing
  - drafts: BIND, Quota, Redirect, 2518bis
  - Meta: charter revision, individual submissions

BIND
Chairs asked if there were any new comments on Bind.  There were none.  
Joe talked about the last call and remaining issues and lack of quorum. 
  The last call happened before the cutoff dates for this IETF, but 
chairs need to figure out if it's appropriate to do an IETF/IESG last 
call.

Anybody here planning on implementing BIND?  It is already implemented 
in SAP Netweaver and Apache Slide.  Julian Reschke is both author of 
the draft and participates on behalf of Netweaver.  There was some 
question on whether the implementors reviewed the document recently 
(but again note that one of the implementors is author of the draft).  
Nobody from the Apache Slide effort was participating as far as we 
could tell.

QUOTA
A new draft of quota was produced recently with some functionality 
removed.  At this point we're waiting for author's feedback.

REDIRECT
Redirect draft: progress waiting on author's implementation (Netweaver 
again) to push forward)

RFC2518BIS
RFC2518bis work: Chairs attempted to find an author with the time and 
focus to go ahead with 2518bis but haven't been successful.  Julian 
noted that he'd volunteered.  Joe pointed out that Julian already has 
plenty on his plate.

META
What is the WG here for and how do we move forward?  What should the 
charter be, or is there enough interest or participation?  If there are 
only a couple individuals doing work, maybe they should be individual 
submissions anyway.  If there isn't enough work and discussion in the 
WG, maybe it doesn't make sense to have this format of discussion. If 
none of the people participating in the discussion, coming to the 
meetings, is this the right format for this.  Scott pointed out that 
Ted was absent this IETF and we'd wait for him to return for decisions 
like this.  We'll take this to list and see if there's any discussion, 
rebuttal
