I see your point. Defining "Translate: F" would probably be better than just knowing if the client is DAV-enabled, since that tells you if the client wants the source or not. That way you could have a client that could view output or source at the same URI. Otherwise you would have to define the DAV-Enabled field to only be sent when a client wanted to GET the source view of a resource, which is a little silly. cjh --
