| Issue ID | Issue Description | Reference | |
| D'oh | L_to_CL | Location header used where Content Location header was needed. The authors used the wrong header from HTTP/1.1 | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998JanMar/0261.html |
| Changes | NULL_DEF | We need to define the term NULL resource and lock-null resource, define what methods it takes (LOCK, UNLOCK, PROPFIND, OPTIONS, etc.), what errors it returns for other methods (404 & 405), and what properties it must support (all mandatory DAV properties although most will be empty). | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998JanMar/0278.html, http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998AprJun/0005.html, http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998AprJun/0006.html |
| D'oh | Prop_Lock_207 | In 7.10.10 the example does not currently return the lockdiscovery property as it is required to. | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998JanMar/0275.html |
| D'oh | locktoken_href | Current DTD allows an empty href for the locktoken element, that is illegal. | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998JanMar/0275.html |
| D'oh | 7.1.2_empty | In 7.1.2 we refer to an empty resource as undefined not empty | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998JanMar/0276.html |
| Ancient | 5.3_locktoken_in_header | 5.3 states that a lock token must be returned in the locktoken response header, but we now return the lock token in the body | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998JanMar/0277.html |
| Editorial | 4.1_collection_def | The current collection definition could be interpreted to restrict the use of GET on collections. | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998JanMar/0282.html |
| Ancient | 4.4_single_source | The text in the last paragraph in section 4.4 says that the source link is only to be used when there is a single source, however that was never intended to be the requirement and in fact the current syntax allows for multiple source/dst elements. | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998JanMar/0282.html |
| D'oh | 7.2_propatch | The first sentence of the last paragraph of section 7.2 specifies that a PROPPATCH must contain at least one PROPERTYUPDATE element, this is a bug, it meant one and only one. | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998AprJun/0002.html |
| Ancient | 7.10.6_refresh | 7.10.6's table talks about regranting and the last paragraph does as well but this is a bug, it is illegal to ask for the same lock twice. | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998AprJun/0002.html |
| Ancient | 7.11.1_lock_token | The lock-token header in the unlock example in 7.11.1 uses the old lock-token format | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998AprJun/0002.html |
| D'oh | 7.6.2.1_d'oh | One of the URLs in the explination paragraph uses ww. Instead of www. | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998AprJun/0002.html |
| Ancient | 11.10.1.1_Propstat | The propstat description is from ancient version of the draft, the descriptive language and examples are all correct. | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998AprJun/0002.html |
| Editorial | 22_references | We have divided the references into normative and informational, apparently this sort of division makes the RFC editor very happy. | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998AprJun/0007.html |
| Editorial | 9.5_424 | The last sentence in the paragraph is unclear, I have tightened its language. | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998AprJun/0007.html |
| Changes | XML_Names | The appendix has been updated to the latest XML namespace draft. All namespace examples in the draft have been updated to use the new syntax.

| Editorial | example_headers | We use a number of different formats to identify an example in the headers, we have gone through and made them all consistent. They are all now in the form "example - …." | http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-dist-auth/1998AprJun/0007.html |
