Thanks all for replies. This basically means that if a principal has read access in one group and read-write in another, then if the read group comes first, then when a webdav request is made to edit the document, the resource will be streamed to the user in read-only mode. Not desirable in some circumstances... Anyhow, at least I know now how to proceed. thanks again Nick

I read the spec at http://www.greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/rfc3744.html#acl.evaluation such that the order is important and not strictness. Slide code says the same.
