Suppose some joker sends you the URI: http://t-d-b.org?http://edavies.me.uk/1907/wibble and you wonder if I, the URI owner (by delegation [1]), has really associated a resource with this rather odd looking URI. You do a GET on it and get a 303 response back. Do you now know anything about the association of the URI that you didn't before you tried this? Other, that is, than a location to go and see if you can get any more information (you can't in this case)? Ed Davies. [1] http://thing-described-by.org/
