For an updated PATCH draft that should be posting in a couple of days, I have considered using two new warn-codes to indicate when a Prefer header is ignored or applied. I am, however, reconsidering that in favor of using some new response header. I'm not aware of any implementation that makes any real use of Warning headers tho I have come across them in the wild before. - James Mark Nottingham wrote: > > Does anyone know of a UA or other client that actually uses / displays > the Warning header? > > Or of any proxy or other server that produces them? > > I've only come across them rarely, and considering how complex they are, > sometimes wonder if they should be deprecated, or at least simplified > (if that's possible without breaking existing uses). > > Oh, and I suppose that if we're documenting extensibility, we'll need > some way of extending the warn-codes; presumably, an IANA registry. > > > -- > Mark Nottingham http://www.mnot.net/ > > >
