Subject: Question about WebCAP

Hi,

I have a question about WebCAP(draft-ietf-pkix-webcap-00.txt).

In the WebCAP draft,

|4.3. GETCERT
| The GETCERT method retrieves certificate(s) from the CA repository
| specified by the Request-URI. All CAP compliant resources MUST sup-
| port the GETCERT method and the getcert XML element along with all
| XML elements defined for use with that element.
|
| A client SHOULD submit a getcert XML element in the body of the
| request method describing what information is being requested.
|
| All servers MUST support returning a response of content type
| text/xml that contains a multi-status XML element that describes the
| results of the attempts to retrieve the various certificates.
...

When retrieving multiple certificates, is it assumed to send a
GETCERT request even if the certificates are issued by different CAs?

If it is assumed, which kind of multi-status response is returned
when the CAP server can't get all the certificates?

regards,
