In RFC 2616: 10.4.6 405 Method Not Allowed The method specified in the Request-Line is not allowed for the resource identified by the Request-URI. The response MUST include an Allow header containing a list of valid methods for the requested resource. which has the effect of requiring that a server advertise all methods to a resource. In some cases, method implementation is implemented across several (extensible) parts of a server and thus not known. In other cases, it may not be prudent to tell an unauthenticated client all of the methods that might be available to other clients. I think the above should be modified to s/MUST/MAY/; does anyone here know of a reason not to make that change? ....RoyReceived on Thursday, 23 June 2005 21:00:15 GMT
