The content negotiation subgroup is also working on a vary header, which is different from the one under the above three URLs. In particular, it has different interactions with the URI header. A vary header model currently being discussed in the content negotiation subgroup can be found in <URL:http://www.organic.com/public/conneg/mail/0087.html>. There is no consensus yet on this document, though I am pretty certain that there will be consensus in the content negotiation subgroup on URI and Vary with respect to caching before Feb 2. > David Robinson.
