It seems from draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-07 that only
version-controlled resources are part of the ordering of
version-controlled collections (Section 9: "for compatibility with
RFC3253, only the ordering of version-controlled members needs to be
maintained")

Does that mean there's no way to order versioned and unversioned
resources together within a version-controlled collection?

   Does that mean there's no way to order versioned and unversioned
   resources together within a version-controlled collection?

That is correct.  The issue is that when you UPDATE a
version-controlled collection with a new version, it can change the
set of version-controlled members, and there would not be a way to
define what the ordering of the existing non-version-controlled
members should be wrt the new version-controlled members.

Cheers,
Geoff

The full context being:

"This specification considers both the ordering type (DAV:ordering-type
property) and the ordering of collection members to be part of the state of
a collection. Therefore both MUST be recorded upon CHECKIN or
VERSION-CONTROL, and both MUST be restored upon CHECKOUT, UNCHECKOUT or
UPDATE (where for compatibility with RFC3253, only the ordering of
version-controlled members needs to be maintained)."

Nope. It's supposed to mean that you *can* order both types of resources
within a versioned-controlled collection, but collection *versions* will
only keep ordering information for those members that were
version-controlled.

Do I need to rephrase the text to make this clearer?

Wait-a-minute :-)

For instance, we can define that the UPDATE operation does not define the
ordering of those members (that is, the server (a) may insert them in
arbitrary places or (b) must insert them at the end). Currently the
postcondition is:

"(DAV:update-version-controlled-collection-members-ordered): If the request
modified the DAV:checked-in version of a version-controlled collection and
the DAV:ordering-type for the checked-in version is not unordered
("DAV:unordered"), the version-controlled members MUST be ordered according
to the checked-in version's DAV:version-controlled-binding-set property."

How about adding:

"Members that are not version-controlled MUST be moved to the end of the
ordering (in no particular order)."

This behaviour would be consistent with section 6.1 (setting the position
when no ordering information was specified).

Julian

   "(DAV:update-version-controlled-collection-members-ordered): If the
   request modified the DAV:checked-in version of a version-controlled
   collection and the DAV:ordering-type for the checked-in version is
   not unordered ("DAV:unordered"), the version-controlled members
   MUST be ordered according to the checked-in version's
   DAV:version-controlled-binding-set property."

   How about adding:

   "Members that are not version-controlled MUST be moved to the end of the
   ordering (in no particular order)."

   This behaviour would be consistent with section 6.1 (setting the position
   when no ordering information was specified).

That would be fine with me, or just saying that the order of the
non-version-controlled members is server-defined following the UPDATE.

Cheers,
Geoff

Is the position of a newly-defined resource in an ordered collection
treated the same way by all servers?   It would be nice to be specific
about how new resources are added to an ordered collection.

I assume that sub-collections are orderable as well? That is, if I have
an ordered collection containing several sub-collections, I assume I can
define an ordering that includes all sub-collections along with all
other children.  I believe this is already clear through the term
"member" even though none of the examples show a sub-collection.

Other questions
 - If I MOVE a resource within the same collection, must the server
preserve its ordering position wrt other resources?
 - If I COPY a resource within the same collection, where is the new
resource placed in the ordering -- next to the old resource (closely
preserving its ordering semantics), or at the end, or arbitrary?
 - If I MOVE or COPY a resource into a collection, overwriting a
resource that has an ordering position, is that ordering position (of
the destination) preserved?
 - If I DELETE a resource, must the server preserve the ordering other
than that deleted resource?  Section 4 could be more explicit that if
resource C is after B is after A, then the deletion of B means that C
must be after A rather than destroying the ordering relationship.  This
is worth making explicit because server implementors must either
maintain their orderings in a format that is irrelevant to what
resources exist (absolute), or relative orderings must be fixed up when
a resource is deleted.

Note that the answers to the MOVE/COPY questions are particularly
important if WebDAV clients do "Safe-save" operations -- e.g. a client
that PUTs an new resource then uses COPY to overwrite the existing
resource after finding that the PUT worked.  There are many other
variations in safe-save algorithms, some using MOVE.

Yes.

Nope. Ordering is a property of the internal (!) members of a collection, so
it doesn't automatically affect child collections:

<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-07.htm
l#rfc.section.4.p.4>

That depends on the Position header:

<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-07.htm
l#SECTION.SETTING>

>  - If I COPY a resource within the same collection, where is the new

Same:

<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-07.htm
l#SECTION.SETTING>


>  - If I MOVE or COPY a resource into a collection, overwriting a

Usually not, as RFC2518 defines an Overwrite to be implicitly DELETE the
target.

I think this follows from the definition of "ordering" (repeatability of
PROPFIND result element ordering).

Those servers will need to set the Position header accordingly if they want
the resulting resource to be in the "original" position.

Sorry, I must not have been sufficiently clear in my questions.  I'm
mostly discussing operations without the Position header -- operations
with clients that aren't aware of ordering.

So this meant, how are resources added to a client-ordered collection
when the Position header is missing? Must servers add them to the end of
the ordering or can they be put at the beginning or anywhere?

Again I was unclear.  I meant direct sub-collections, or collections
which are direct children of the ordered collection. These are ordered
together with regular child resources, correct?  There are no examples
of this but I believe this is what the spec says.

What happens if the Position header is not present?  Must servers
preserve the ordering or lose it?

And here, what happens if the COPY method has no Position header?

No, I disagree with this.  Overwriting a regular resource does not reset
all the live properties.  For example, it would be pretty disastrous for
the ACL property to be reset every time a resource is overwritten.
Besides, the ordering is a property of the parent, not the resource
being overwritten.  I would expect that ordering would be preserved, but
the spec ought to say one way or another.

It is not the servers doing "safe save" operation, it's the clients, and
these may be clients that are unaware of ordering or choose not to set
the Position header.

It's important to consider how a server with an ordered collection
interacts with ordinary clients (ones that do not use the Position
header). Otherwise, an author that tries to keep their collection
ordered may frequently find the ordering  unecessarily "messed up" after
resources are added, deleted, renamed, or overwritten by non-ordering
client software (e.g. Office).

At the end. See:

l#rfc.section.6.1.p.2>

Sure. Collections are resources. If a collection appears as a direct member
of an ordered collection, it behaves (ordering-wise) just like a plain
resource.

It must order it at the end. See above.

If you do that using a MOVE? I *really strongly* disagree. ACLs are
properties of a resource, not of it's binding/URL. MOVEing a resource MUST
move it's ACL with it, overwriting the target resource's ACLs. Please take
this to the ACL list if you feel this needs to be discussed.

> Besides, the ordering is a property of the parent, not the resource

It says:

"If the request is replacing an existing resource, the server MUST preserve
the present ordering.
If the request is adding a new internal member URI to the collection, the
server MUST append the new member to the end of the ordering."

So the ordering spec basically delegates the decision to the server
implementor (it depends how overwrite operations are implemented
internally) -- I'm not sure we can be more precise here because it might be
impossible or very expensive to implement in some cases.

I think it *is* explicit (by definition).

Correct. This means that these clients will lose the original order
position.

I agree that this is the case, but it's unclear how we can prevent this. A
server usually doesn't have the required context to decide what the intent
of a sequence of operations is.

Note that Office isn't an issue here because it indeed edits
(LOCK/GET/PUT/UNLOCK) a single URL. Also note that a similar problem exists
with RFC3253-style autoversioning. The best way to avoid these issues is to
use a client which behaves properly (by consistently using the same URL).

I was suggesting to take the question to the ACL mailing list, because it
affects mainly the WebDAV ACL spec, not the ordering spec (which is
discussed here on the "generic" WebDAV mailing list) -- the WebDAV ACL
mailing list simply is a better place to resolve open issues regarding the
behaviour of ACLs upon COPY/MOVE.

I think this is the wrong behavior.  A MOVE within a collection is
simply a rename.  A server ought at least to be able to preserve the
ordering if Office/Web Folders does a rename.  Otherwise this
unnecessarily disturbs the author's ordering.  If we don't say "a server
MUST retain the relative position of a member when it is moved within
the same ordered collection without an explicit Position header", then
it should at least be a SHOULD.

ACL isn't the issue -- it was just an illustration.  

If you COPY some content into an ordered collection, overwriting an
existing resource, what is the right thing to do?  I think the right
thing to do is to preserve the target resource's position.  Suggested
language:

  "When COPY is used to overwrite a member of an ordered collection
without an explicit Position header, the server MUST maintain the
original members position, just as when PUT is used."

If you MOVE some content this is a little more difficult.  Perhaps you
could say "When a resource is moved from outside the ordered collection
into the ordered collection and overwriting a pre-existing member
(without an explicit Position header), the server SHOULD preserve the
pre-existing member's position.  When a resource is moved within the
ordered collection and overwites another internal member (without an
explicit Position header) the server MAY preserve either the source or
the destination's position but MUST NOT arbitrarily reorder the moved
resource to the end of the order."

Sorry, how can this possibly be explicit in the definition of the
PROPFIND response?  Unless the spec is clear, what's to stop the server
from arbitrarily reordering the collection (losing some or all of the
ordering information) when a resource is deleted?  After all, any other
write operation in an ordered collection may change the ordering, so the
definition which mentions the PROPFIND response obviously is dependent
on the behavior of write operations in between.

OK, you got me there :-)

The default of "end-of-ordering" in the absence of the Position header is
specified for the case where a new collection member is *added*. A MOVE can
be seen both as

1) removing a binding and adding a new binding or
2) renaming a binding.

Depending on which point of view you take, you are or you aren't adding a
new collection member. The ordering spec currently is silent on how a
collection-internal MOVE needs to work, and I'm not sure that it would be a
good idea to get into the business of  defining this

> I think this is the wrong behavior.  A MOVE within a collection is

I disagree here -- a MOVE within a collection *can* be implemented as a
simple rename, but no spec currently forces servers to behave that way.
RFC2518 defines COPY/DELETE semantics, the binding spec (I think) sees it as
BIND/UNBIND.

This would definitively be useful for the average client. Does anybody have
a problem with making this a SHOULD?

It was a *good* illustration. This is a very important issue where I think
you are wrong (because the ACL spec clearly says that MOVEing a resource
must preserve it's access rights). You really should raise this on the ACL
list.

It depends on the same question as above: is a new collection member added
or not? I don't think the ordering spec should get into the business of
defining this (RFC2518bis possibly should).

Again, the ordering spec defines the behaviour based on the condition of
whether new internal members are added or not. I think it's consistent in
this regard. Mandating a specific behaviour here won't fly -- if we really
want to make this consistent between specific implementations, we should try
to clarify this in RFC2518bis (the behaviour for ordered collections will
then follow automatically).

It follows from the definition of ordering. Removing an element from a fully
ordered set doesn't affect the ordering of the remaining elements. If "a"
was "before" "c" before the DELETE of "b", it still will be before it after
the operation.

No, that is not the case. No write operation will have side-effects to the
ordering of existing members. A newly added member is simply inserted at a
specific position in the ordering, but the ordering of the previously
present elements will still be the same.

One thing that I would suggest is to never try to define semantics for
both COPY and MOVE at the same time (they have radically different
semantics, in spite of what 2518 incorrectly implies, as acknowledged
by the authors of 2518 :-).  In particular, in the following
discussion, what Lisa says is true for COPY while what Julian says is
true for MOVE.  In particular:

I believe that we have consensus that 2518 is wrong here 
(this is explicitly pointed out in 3253) and that Overwrite is
only a DELETE for MOVE, not for COPY.

Here Lisa is talking about COPY behavior.

   From: Julian Reschke [mailto:julian.reschke@gmx.de]

   If you do that using a MOVE? I *really strongly* disagree. ACLs are
   properties of a resource, not of it's binding/URL. MOVEing a
   resource MUST move it's ACL with it, overwriting the target
   resource's ACLs.

And here Julian is responding with MOVE behavior.

Geoff

That's why I wrote *usually* here.

That would be good. Do we? Anyway, this should be clarified in RFC2518bis.

That *may* be the source for the confusion.

However I've got the impression that Lisa would like servers to better
support the following request chain ("safe delete"):

GET A
PUT A.bak
MOVE A.bak -> A

or similarily

GET A
MOVE A -> A.bak
PUT A
DELETE A.bak

Under this scenario, a resource would usually lose it's ordering position.
However, it would also lose it's version history and it's ACL, so I fail to
see why this would be a specific problem with the ordering spec.

However, if the client would issue these requests:

GET A
PUT A.bak
COPY A.bak A
DELETE A.bak

and the server conforms to the RFC3253 COPY semantics, there wouldn't be any
problem with ordering, ACLs or version history (the ordering spec just
"inherits" from the server's view of what COPY/Overwrite means).

So if at the end of the day we agree that COPY should always have RFC3253
sematics, I'm all for it :-) I just didn't want the ordering spec to require
a specific model.


Julian


P.S.: these "safe delete" scenarios obviously can become problematic if the
client doesn't properly handle dead properties.

I agree there's little we can do about the safe-save algorithms that use
MOVE, sadly.  In fact, the correctest behavior for MOVE is probably, as
with version histories, to retain the source resource's ordering
position if a destination is overwritten.

However, if a destination is not being overwritten, then shouldn't the
MOVE (the rename) preserve ordering?

From a client's point of view: almost certainly.

The spec currently lets this depend on whether the server implements this as
a single rename or a bind/unbind (in which a new binding is created and the
previous is removed). Before I add some language about this, I'd like to get
some more additional opinions.

The ACL list can be loosely viewed as a design team. I say loosely, since
design teams are normally small and closed, and this list is open and free
for all to subscribe. It emerged as a way to prevent the main DAV list from
being occasionally swamped by ACL discussion.

Operationally, actively working members of the DAV WG are subscribed to both
the main DAV list and the ACL list, and so the ACL list serves as a
convenient partitioning and filtering mechanism for ACL discussions.

Of course, all drafts discussed on the ACL list are brought to the main DAV
list for WG last call, and for official decisions on consensus. See for
example:

Stumbled across this recent press release:

"To meet the needs of enterprise developers, XMLSPY 5 builds on the
success of previous award winning versions through the addition of
several key new features: 

Enhanced WebDAV Support -- Web-based Distributed Authoring and
Versioning (WebDAV) is a standardized set of extensions to the HTTP
(web) protocol, which allows users to collaboratively edit and manage
XML files located on remote web-servers. XMLSPY 5 and AUTHENTIC 5 now
support Delta-V (http://www.webdav.org/deltav/), an extension to the
WebDAV protocol which enables check-in/check-out functionality when used
in conjunction with a WebDAV server, thus supporting XML content editing
in a truly collaborative, distributed environment, such as the Web."

Interesting.

A trace reveals that it does indeed PROPFIND some DeltaV properties, but
it's unclear what it does with them.

After switching off autoversioning on our server, I wasn't able to PUT
resources anymore. No Checkin/Checkout menu item in sight.

Did anybody else have more success?

Hi,
I recently had a look at PROPPATCH. It seems it only allows to set the complete
value of a property. Is this correct ?
For the subbaseline-set I would have liked to be able to add or remove a single
subbaseline.

Cheers, Edgar

This is correct. To reliably set a value like this one with PROPPATCH, a
client ought to LOCK the resource, PROPFIND the property, add or remove
the single baseline, PROPPATCH and UNLOCK.  Otherwise a change by
another client might result in a mini "lost-update" problem.

Trying to summarize the issues raised by Lisa:

1) Concerns that ordering information will be lost when clients not aware of
ordering do "safe updates" (such as writing to a temp file, then moving it
to the original file): I agree that this is less than optimal, but the very
same issues exist with versioning (version history lost) or ACLs. Therefore
I'd say that the ordering spec should not try to fix something that is
inherently broken. The right way to fix this is to have clients that take
advantage of WebDAV properly (for instance doing in-place editing using
LOCKs).

2) More specific language about when ordering information is supposed to be
preserved. Right now, the ordering spec is mainly silent on this issue -- it
only defines specific behaviour for the case when new collection members are
added. In particular, Lisa mentioned DELETE which should not affect the
ordering of other members in the collection. I think this is obvious and
doesn't need to specified separately, but I'm willing to add a few sentences
if others feel this should be addressed (my point being: removing one member
from an ordered set doesn't affect the ordering of the remaining members).

3) The spec currently avoids to completely specify about *when* a new
collection member is added. Obviously this is the case for MKCOL and
PUT/COPY [when not updating an existing resource] (as stated in section
6.1), but what about MOVE? I can imagine servers that implement MOVE as a
sequence of LINK and UNLINK, in which case clearly a new binding is being
created and an old one is destroyed. On the other hand, it would be useful
for clients if they could rely on MOVE inside a collection (-> rename) not
to change the ordering. So do we want to mandate a specific server behaviour
(making it harder for server implementors), or leave it as it is (making it
harder for clients)?

Feedback appreciated.

Julian

I agree with (1).

For (2), I agree that it is obvious, but I have nothing against adding a
sentence or two to make the obvious explicit (:-).

For (3), I don't think making a special case for "move within a collection"
vs. "move outside of the collection" is worth optimizing, since it makes the
spec more complicated and is likely to be enough of a problem to some
servers to make it likely to not be followed anyway.

Cheers,
Geoff

Subject: RE: More on ordered collections 


Trying to summarize the issues raised by Lisa:

1) Concerns that ordering information will be lost when clients not aware of
ordering do "safe updates" (such as writing to a temp file, then moving it
to the original file): I agree that this is less than optimal, but the very
same issues exist with versioning (version history lost) or ACLs. Therefore
I'd say that the ordering spec should not try to fix something that is
inherently broken. The right way to fix this is to have clients that take
advantage of WebDAV properly (for instance doing in-place editing using
LOCKs).

2) More specific language about when ordering information is supposed to be
preserved. Right now, the ordering spec is mainly silent on this issue -- it
only defines specific behaviour for the case when new collection members are
added. In particular, Lisa mentioned DELETE which should not affect the
ordering of other members in the collection. I think this is obvious and
doesn't need to specified separately, but I'm willing to add a few sentences
if others feel this should be addressed (my point being: removing one member
from an ordered set doesn't affect the ordering of the remaining members).

3) The spec currently avoids to completely specify about *when* a new
collection member is added. Obviously this is the case for MKCOL and
PUT/COPY [when not updating an existing resource] (as stated in section
6.1), but what about MOVE? I can imagine servers that implement MOVE as a
sequence of LINK and UNLINK, in which case clearly a new binding is being
created and an old one is destroyed. On the other hand, it would be useful
for clients if they could rely on MOVE inside a collection (-> rename) not
to change the ordering. So do we want to mandate a specific server behaviour
(making it harder for server implementors), or leave it as it is (making it
harder for clients)?

Feedback appreciated.

Julian

OK...:

1) noted and closed.

2) noted and added a sentence clarifying that DELETE MUST NOT affect the
ordering of the remaining members.

3) noted as open issue [1]  -- suggest not to do anything about it unless
more people speak up in favor of requiring a specific server behaviour.

Julian

OK,

I finally got feedback from Altova. The Home Edition doesn't seem to do
DeltaV, but the Enterprise Edition does. Once an external web folder is
added to a project, version-controlled resources can be checked-in and
checked-out. Checkin even prompts for DAV:comment (I think this is the first
client doing this :-). I haven't managed to enable version-control using
XML-Spy, though.

Some more info is at:

Just a brief reminder that we're in the final days of a working group last
call for comments period on the WebDAV Ordered Collections protocol,
draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-07.

From the abstract of the -07 specification

  This specification extends the WebDAV Distributed Authoring Protocol
  to support server-side ordering of collection members. Of particular
  interest are orderings that are not based on property values, and so
  cannot be achieved using a search protocol's ordering option and
  cannot be maintained automatically by the server. Protocol elements
  are defined to let clients specify the position in the ordering of
  each collection member, as well as the semantics governing the
  ordering.

This last call for comments period ends Sunday, April 27, 2003, at midnight,
US Pacific time.

The specification can be accessed at:

Text (this is the normative version)
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-07.t
xt

HTML:
http://www.greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-07.
html

XML:
http://www.greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-07.
xml


Based on comments received so far, there will likely be another draft
produced, but there will not be another WG last call period. I am currently
anticipating that the -08 specification will be sent immediately to the IESG
for approval. As a result, if you are planning on reviewing this
specification, please do so immediately.

- Jim

Thans Jim,

the current edits are this URL:


http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-latest.
html

There's currently one unresolved issue for which I am looking for feedback:


http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-latest.
html#rfc.issue.6.1-when-are-members-added

In case that there's no additional feedback, the plan is to close it as "no
change".

Regards,

Julian

May I ask about practical example or cases about WebDAV Ordered Collections
protocol. It is not clear to me why we define new protocol when we have the
search protocol's ordering option. In other words, which aspects of ordering
can not be covered by the search protocol's ordering option.

Thanks in advance,
Bita

Thanks Julian. But can't we use the properties instead. For example in case of
having a book, just define a property called page, or if there is no proper
property, just create a proper one for them. I read the documentation, it is
saying  "The ordering protocol defined here focuses on support for such
human-maintained orderings."  What does it mean by human-maintained ordering?

Sorry if it is very basic question.
Bita.

Hi,

some more thoughts:

Properties are attached to resources. Ordering is a property of the
collection that contains internal member names identifying resources. For
instance, you might have several collections containing bindings to the same
set of resources, but with different orderings. There's no way to simulate
this with DASL (which -- by the way -- is not nearly done...) and returning
ordered results.

Thanks Julian. But can't we use the properties instead. For example in case
of
having a book, just define a property called page, or if there is no proper
property, just create a proper one for them. I read the documentation, it is
saying  "The ordering protocol defined here focuses on support for such
human-maintained orderings."  What does it mean by human-maintained
ordering?

Sorry if it is very basic question.
Bita.

Ok, what if we define a live property called resource-name which is
representing the name of a resource?

We can't, because the name isn't a property of the resource. It's a property
of the binding *to* the resource (of which there can be many), and which
belongs to the state of the parent collection.

BTW: how would that help?

Well, I was thinking that maybe the best use case of the Ordering protocol was
regarded to the versioning of resources. In this case, I though if every time
that a revision is created, a live property containing the name of resource was

attached to the resource, maybe we didn't need to the new Ordered protocol.

Does it make sense?

Bita.

Now you got me confused :-) What's the relation of (1) resource names and
(2) versioning to ordering collection members?

Dear Julian

Sorry.  I may be wrong, it is just some thought.
1) the resource names to ordering collection:

By my undrestanding, what is suggested in the ordering collection, is a way
to change the order of resources and put them the at the beginning or end of
the list, after or before a given resource. Also this is true that in the
Real numbers you can always find a number less or a number greater than a
given number.
Consider, you have a live property called resource-name which is made by the
name of resource followed by a Real number. Now every time you would like to
have a new order, system can change the resource- name based on your order
(by changing the Real part of resource-names) . Then by using the order
option on the resource-name in the Search protocol we can have the desired
order.

2) Versioning to ordering collection:

The tree in the section 8 of the orderd-collections-protocol reminds me of
the situation in the Versioning. This reminding and some other thoughts
(maybe silly) caused to say so.

I hope I didn't make you more confused. If so, I apologize again.

Regards,
Bita.

I understand that you're saying that using a combination of dead properties
and DASL queries, similar results could be obtained. This is true. However,
modelling collection ordering as property of the containing collection has
the following advantages:

- no need to modify resources
- no need to come up with unique property names per containing collection
- no dependendy on an unfinished spec
- existing clients can take immediate advantage by just not sorting a
PROPFIND result

Hello all,

Everyone tells me that it is not possible for WebDAV to be 
implemented in support of individual (personal) accounts on an Apache 
webserver.  I am specifically interested in the Apache webserver that 
ships with both MacOS X and MacOS X Server but I'd suppose that this 
question and any answers to it would generalize to all other 
instances of Apache and mod_dav.  The reason for my interest in this 
is that I want to offer my users (faculty and students) a high level 
of ease-of-use and avoid the use of FTP and Microsft FrontPage Server 
Extensions for security and resource conservation reasons.

The reasons given for this "impossible" task all tend to focus on 
permissions.  Apache web sites all have to be owned by the "www" user 
and this is hard wired into both Apache and mod_dav.  OK, fine, but 
why must this always and forever be so?  Why can't this ownership 
dimension be externalized such that it can be configured by editing 
the hpptd.conf or some other file?

While I can understand the interest in supporting workgroups with all 
of the interesting challenges of protecting co-workers from one 
another, individuals and their work are important as well.  In the 
larger context of the politics of open standards, it does not make 
sense to ignore the most numerous block of web workers and focus 
exclusively upon a small elite population of workgroups.  The client 
side of things is in place to support both individuals and workgroups 
-- all that is needed is a complimentary server-side effort.

Accordingly, I'd like to suggest that http://www.webdav.org/ maintain 
a list of webservers that can be used to extend WebDAV functionality 
to individuals whose web pages are addressed in the form of:

That seems odd to me.  I've not tried mod_dav in about 3 years, but what I 
know of Apache suggests that you can use it for whatever accounts you 
define.  Perhaps I just misunderstand your statement though.   So what 
specifically have you heard prevents one from using it in support of the 
accounts that you mention?

OK,

now that the WG last call period has ended, let's decide how to proceed.

There was one open issue, for which there was one vote for change (Lisa),
and one vote for no change (Geoff). As acting editor I lean to no-change. If
this is ok for everybody, I'll submit the draft located at


http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-latest.
html

as version 08.

"No change" isn't acceptable when the comment is that something is not
specified.  My last issue was "if a destination is not being
overwritten, then shouldn't the MOVE (the rename) preserve ordering?"

The spec can say "When a resource is moved within a collection and the
destination did not previously exist (the 'rename' case), its relative
ordering MUST be preserved." Or the spec could say SHOULD or MAY.
However, staying silent on an issue like this allows some implementors
to assume MUST and others to assume MAY.

That said, if a sentence like this is added to the draft we do not need
to go through WG last call again for this issue.

if the spec is silent on the issue simply means that it's undefined. So an
implementor that assumes this mean "MUST" simply is wrong. The point being,
we (Geoff and myself) feel that the spec shouldn't require any specific
server behaviour, and thus not defining it at all seems to be absolutely
reasonable.

Can anyone here confirm or disconfirm whether or not the following 
version of WebCT (which claims to be WebDAV-compliant) is, in fact, 
WebDAV-compliant?

WebCT Vista 1.2 (based upon the BEA WebLogic webserver)
See: http://www.webct.com/products/viewpage?name=products_vista

 From the user manual, the following claim is made:
WebDAV (World Wide Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning) protocol 
is an Internet Engineering Task Force standard for collaborative 
authoring on the Web.  WebCT is fully functional with the WebDAV file 
system. Users can set up a web folder connection to either an 
accessible learning context folder or their My Files folder. For more 
information, visit the WebDAV home page at http://www.webdav.org . 
Once set up, the WebCT folder appears as a typical folder on their 
local computer. Users can drag and drop files into that folder and, 
if connected to the internet, the web folder will synchronize 
automatically to the WebCT server.


I am trying to track down why several WebDAV-compliant applications 
and clients are having difficulty with this server.  If I can 
establish for a fact that it is basically compliant and that these 
apps/clients **should** be able to work with it, I can direct my 
attention elsewhere.

Are there lists of servers that are WebDAV-compliant with ratings or 
notes on the degree of that compliance?

Are there lists of applications and clients that are WebDAV-compliant 
with  ratings or notes on the degree of that compliance?

Why should the spec be silent when people have reasonable questions
about whether an issue works one way or another?  If no specific
behavior is required, you must still say so.  Otherwise readers *will*
assume.

The working group last call for comments period on the WebDAV Ordered
Collections Protocol, draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-07, has ended.

Issues raised during the WG Last Call for comments period are summarized in:

http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-latest.
html

(See "Issues List" immediately after the Table of Contents).

There is currently one open issue which is in the process of resolution on
the WG mailing list (issue 6.1, when-are-members-added).

Once the open issues have been resolved, the document editor, Julian
Reschke, will issue a new Internet-Draft. Once this has been done,
draft-ietf-webdav-ordering-protocol-08 will be sent to the IESG for approval
as a Proposed Standard.

- Jim Whitehead
Co-Chair
IETF WebDAV WG

I'm not sure I understand the objection the Geoff raises (i.e., I don't see
what the potential problems might be).

IMO, the principle of least astonishment applies here. If a resource has a
given name (final path segment) in a collection, and then is given a new
name (final path segment), a user would expect that resource to keep its
current position, unless the ordering explicitly depends on the value of the
final path segment.

So, I'm with Lisa, I think some additional language here would be good (MUST
preserve position for MOVEs that only change final path segment except when
the order semantics explicitly depend on the URL or final path segment).

IHMO no.

However, you may want to try the "litmus" test suite which checks WebDAV
conformance of servers and IMHO currently is the best thing that we have to
measure compliance:

The "principle of regularity" states that if a moved resource is moved to
the end of the ordering in some cases, it is more regular for it to be moved
to the end of the ordering in all cases, and not make the behavior dependent
on whether the destination collection is the same as the source collection.
For folks that expect regularity, it will be "less astonishing" for the
behavior to be regular, and not special-cased in the way you suggest.

Note this just explains my rationale.  I personally don't have a strong
preference either way.

I'm not sure I understand the objection the Geoff raises (i.e., I don't see
what the potential problems might be).

IMO, the principle of least astonishment applies here. If a resource has a
given name (final path segment) in a collection, and then is given a new
name (final path segment), a user would expect that resource to keep its
current position, unless the ordering explicitly depends on the value of the
final path segment.

So, I'm with Lisa, I think some additional language here would be good (MUST
preserve position for MOVEs that only change final path segment except when
the order semantics explicitly depend on the URL or final path segment).

Yes.

To summarize the possible variations:

1) specify that a MOVE inside a collection does not add a new member -> in
this case a "rename" operation won't change ordering, but will be completely
inconsistent with the cross-collection MOVE (where a new member *is* added
and thus the Position header semantics apply)

2) specify that a MOVE inside a collection removes the old and adds a new
member -> consistency with cross-collection MOVE operation, but ordering
will be lost when done by a client that isn't aware of ordering semantics

3) do not mandate a specific behaviour (the current wording) -- in which
case we'd still need to decide whether spec needs to be more specific about
this being server-defined behaviour.

I think in doubt we should consider simplicity of the spec as well,
therefore leave things as they are and possibly make that more explicit.

Lisa,

I disagree. It's simply impractical to list all the things a spec doesn't
specify. If it's unspecified, readers MUST NOT assume. That being said, if
the WG thinks that there's a real risk that this particular part may be
misinterpreted, we surely can try to clarify (in case we decide that we want
this to stay server-defined).
