Kee Hinckley: >Now if you want to argue that Redirect is for moved documents, and there >should be a "NowGoHere" directive, I might be persuaded. But... The draft http spec already defines both a Redirect and a NowGoHere. The redirection code 301 Moved Permanently signifies permanent redirection; clients are encouraged to remember the it, and the code 302 Moved Temporarily signifies a redirection that may be dynamic. The draft spec implies that redirection information gotten in a 302 response may never be cached, though I wonder how many clients conform to this part. I've been writing on a draft spec commentary which suggests that the expires header may be used to allow control cacheability of 302 (and 300) responses. Koen.
