Re: PROPOSAL: i76 Use Proxy

Ok,

trying to make progress here.

I have checked in the following change with the goal to finally close 
this issue.

<http://tools.ietf.org/wg/httpbis/trac/changeset/235>

New text:

9.3.6.  305 Use Proxy

    The 305 status was defined in a previous version of this
    specification (see Appendix A.2), and is now deprecated.

and:

A.2.  Changes from RFC 2616

    ...

    Deprecate 305 Use Proxy status code, because user agents did not
    implement it.  It used to indicate that the requested resource must
    be accessed through the proxy given by the Location field.  The
    Location field gave the URI of the proxy.  The recipient was expected
    to repeat this single request via the proxy.  (Section 9.3.6)

    ...


If anyone disagrees with this resolution, please propose alternate text.

BR, Julian
