You may be right. I've not spelunked in the DAV specs for quite some years now. I can see that PROPFIND responses carry the sort of information I was talking about: <D:response xmlns:S="http://subversion.tigris.org/xmlns/svn/"; xmlns:C="http://subversion.tigris.org/xmlns/custom/"; xmlns:V="http://subversion.tigris.org/xmlns/dav/"; xmlns:lp1="DAV:" xmlns:lp3="http://subversion.tigris.org/xmlns/dav/"; xmlns:lp2="http://apache.org/dav/props/";> But I haven't really looked to see if PROPFIND *requests* can do the same, or what the state of PROPPATCH requests/responses are in this respect. -- C.
