Bucket versioning is presently not supported, so this will always respond that bucket versioning is not enabled.
+h3. Accessing collection/project properties as metadata
+
+GetObject, HeadObject, and HeadBucket return Arvados object properties as S3 metadata headers, e.g., @X-Amz-Meta-Foo: bar@.
+
+If the requested path indicates a file or directory placeholder inside a collection, or the top level of a collection, GetObject and HeadObject return the collection properties.
+
+If the requested path indicates a directory placeholder corresponding to a project, GetObject and HeadObject return the properties of the project.
+
+HeadBucket returns the properties of the collection or project corresponding to the bucket name.
+
+Non-string property values are returned in a JSON representation, e.g., @["foo","bar"]@.
+
+As in Amazon S3, property values containing non-ASCII characters are returned in BASE64-encoded form as described in RFC 2047, e.g., @=?UTF-8?b?4pu1?=@.
+
+It is not possible to modify collection or project properties using the S3 API.

h3. Authorization mechanisms
Keep-web accepts AWS Signature Version 4 (AWS4-HMAC-SHA256) as well as the older V2 AWS signature.
-* If your client uses V4 signatures exclusively: use the Arvados token's UUID part as AccessKey, and its secret part as SecretKey. This is preferred.
-* If your client uses V2 signatures, or a combination of V2 and V4, or the Arvados token UUID is unknown: use the secret part of the Arvados token for both AccessKey and SecretKey.
+If your client uses V4 signatures exclusively _and_ your Arvados token was issued by the same cluster you are connecting to, you can use the Arvados token's UUID part as your S3 Access Key, and its secret part as your S3 Secret Key. This is preferred, where applicable.
+
+Example using cluster @zzzzz@:
+* Arvados token: @v2/zzzzz-gj3su-yyyyyyyyyyyyyyy/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@
+* Access Key: @zzzzz-gj3su-yyyyyyyyyyyyyyy@
+* Secret Key: @xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@
+
+In all other cases, replace every @/@ character in your Arvados token with @_@, and use the resulting string as both Access Key and Secret Key.
+
+Example using a cluster other than @zzzzz@ _or_ an S3 client that uses V2 signatures:
+* Arvados token: @v2/zzzzz-gj3su-yyyyyyyyyyyyyyy/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@
+* Access Key: @v2_zzzzz-gj3su-yyyyyyyyyyyyyyy_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@
+* Secret Key: @v2_zzzzz-gj3su-yyyyyyyyyyyyyyy_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@
