And the spec does that now - it does not make any special allowance for responses that originate with some other component or gatewayed system - if the response is labelled HTTP/1.1 then the spec makes certain requirements of it. What more is needed than that? When we say MUST, we don't need to then provide a list of circumstances under which the MUST still applies - unless we allow for exceptions, there are none. -- Scott Lawrence Consulting Engineer <lawrence@agranat.com> Agranat Systems, Inc.
