Some differents are
- With bindings for each resource is an unique uri is created (some thing like /19832093810928301) and this resource is than bound in to arbitrary collections as a member. e.g. the resource with the given uuri may be the member fred in the collection /guys and thats why have one url /guys/fred. but the same resource can have the name ford in the collection /mechanics/byBrand and so have a second uri /mechanics/byBrand/ford. if you remove any of these urls not the resource is deleted, but only the binding. If the last binding is deleted than the resource is deleted to.
- With LinkNodes you have a 'primary' resource to which other nodes are linked. May be you have a resource (node) with url /guys/fred and you create a lnk node /mechanics/byBrand/ford. Than you have two nodes of differend kind, if you delete the primary resource, the links are dangling and must be deleted.
- Bindings can be created by clients via webdav Methods BIND, UNBIND, REBIND but LinkNodes can not be created by the client.
Hope this helps, Stefan

Hi Guys
Is there anywhere that describes the differences between LinkNodes and Bindings and also provides an overview on when each of these techniques should be used ?
