Hi, I was wondering if people had already imagined a mechanism to warn about the decay, or the non persistence of a URI. No bikeshed yet about the name let's call it "zardoz" instead of "Valid-until". Let's say a document will be obsolete for legal reasons, contests, sunsetting Web sites or APIs, etc. after midnight on June 24 and I want to say to user agent that it will be 410 Gone after this date and/or a temporary redirect will be finished at a precise date (maintenance for example). → http HEAD http://example.org/ HTTP/1.1 200 OK Accept-Ranges: bytes Cache-Control: max-age=600 Content-Length: 34322 Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2013 05:36:14 GMT Last-Modified: Tue, 11 Jun 2013 21:57:50 GMT Zardoz: Wed, 24 Jun 2013 23:59:59 GMT Is there already a way to do this that I would have missed. The semantics of Expire is not exactly the same. -- Karl Dubost http://www.la-grange.net/karl/
