Hi Nick,

Again I did a Google search and didn't find anything...

Now that I've got the REPORT command working as expected, I'm trying to
read the calendar server's ACL on a per-calendar basis. I only care about
read and write permissions, and treat "all" as being both read and write,
so I explicitly limit the results in the XML HTTP request:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><o:propfind
xmlns:o="DAV:"><o:prop><o:current-user-privilege-set><o:privilege><o:read
/><o:write/><o:all/></o:privilege></o:current-user-privilege-set></o:prop
></o:propfind>

I would expect that to return whether or not the current user has read or
write access to the calendar, but here's what I get back from the server:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><multistatus
xmlns="DAV:"><response><href>/calendars/users/admin/calendar/</href><prop
stat><prop><current-user-privilege-set><privilege><all></all></privilege>
<privilege><read></read></privilege><privilege><read-free-busy
xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav"></read-free-busy></privilege><privi
lege><write></write></privilege><privilege><write-properties></write-prop
erties>
[...]

Fortunately I get what I wanted, but I tried to make my query very
specific to cut down on 'net traffic, and the server's returning way too
much information. The query doesn't ask for read-free-busy, etc.
permissions and there they are. Is this a bug, or am I doing something
wrong in the query?

Also, if this is a bug, should I file this on Radar or on the public
ticket tracker?

I don't see anything in the WebDAV ACL spec (RFC3744) that says a client can send the list of privileges it is interested in in the PROPFIND response and the server would have to returned the property filtered down to only that set. Perhaps that is an extension that some other WebDAV implementation has done, but I don't think its formally defined anywhere.

So right now I think we are doing the right thing except that we maybe ought to generate a BAD REQUEST for your PROPFIND since it does contain something we do not strictly interpret...
