These edits reflect my understanding and recollection of the consenus developed during today's editorial teleconference.

If sent in a request, a cache MUST NOT store any part of either this request or any response to it. If sent in a response, a cache MUST NOT store any part of either this response or the request that elicited it. This directive applies to both non- shared and shared caches. with: + The purpose of the no-store directive is to prevent the inadvertent + release or retention of sensitive information (for example, on + backup tapes). The no-store directive applies to the entire message, and may be sent either in a response or in a request. If sent in a request, a cache MUST NOT store any part of either this request or any response to it. If sent in a response, a cache MUST NOT store any part of either this response or the request that elicited it. This directive applies to both non- shared and shared caches. + "MUST NOT store" in this context means that the cache MUST NOT + intentionally store the information in non-volatile storage, + and MUST make a best-effort attempt to remove the information + from volatile storage as promptly as possible after forwarding it. -JeffReceived on Thursday, 6 June 1996 15:00:22 EDT
