This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Section 3.2 "Put" contains the following paragraph: "The replacement representation could contain within it element or attribute values that are different than their corresponding values in the current representation. Such changes could affect elements or attributes that, for whatever reason, the implementation does wish to allow the client to change. An implementation MAY choose to ignore such elements or attributes, or it MAY generate a wst:PutDenied fault. See 5 Faults." Since the term "generate" is defined as "MUST perform some internal logging and MAY transmit a fault", "MAY generate" is a contradictory clause. Proposal: "The replacement representation could contain within it element or attribute values that are different than their corresponding values in the current representation. Such changes could affect elements or attributes that, for whatever reason, the implementation does wish to allow the client to change. An implementation MAY choose to ignore such elements or attributes. If an implementation does not ignore these elements or attributes, it MUST generate a wst:PutDenied fault. See 5 Faults."
To be clear, change: An implementation MAY choose to ignore such elements or attributes, or it MAY generate a wst:PutDenied fault. to: An implementation MAY choose to ignore such elements or attributes. If an implementation does not ignore these elements or attributes, it MUST generate a wst:PutDenied fault.
