OPTION_WITH_DEPTH from Jim Whitehead on 2001-04-18 (w3c-dist-auth@w3.org from April to June 2001) (original) (raw)

Originally raised in Mark D. Anderson's epic post to the WebDAV mailing list:

The description of this issue in this issues list is:

"Should the Depth header be usable with OPTIONS to perform a query of the capabilities of all resources in a hierarchy?"

To me, the underlying issue is:

Do clients need to be able to query the capabilities of all resources in a collection hierarchy in one network round trip?
