That said, my experience is that this is much less common than it used to be; people are using Vary more and CC: private (for this purpose less). In any case, the answer to Anne's question is "yes, you should expect to get it out of cache, unless the appropriate Vary headers are set, or it is otherwise uncacheable." Of course, you can't ever *count* on it being in cache in the first place... Cheers, -- Mark Nottingham http://www.mnot.net/
