 Technical Summary
 
 This document specifies a set of methods, headers, message bodies, 
 properties, and reports that define Access Control extensions to the 
 WebDAV Distributed Authoring Protocol. This protocol permits a client 
 to read and modify access control lists that instruct a server 
 whether to allow or deny operations upon a resource (such as 
 HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) method invocations) by a given 
 principal. A lightweight representation of principals as Web 
 resources supports integration of a wide range of user management 
 repositories. Search operations allow discovery and manipulation of 
 principals using human names.

 Force.
