We're at that stage of review where questions like this: > If a client has determined that a given server speaks HTTP 1.1, should > it really be considered illegal to omit the HOST header if an absolute > URI is included in the request? should be ignored. What you need to say if you expect action is stronger than a question, you'll need to say why what the spec says SHOULDN'T be accepted. > And what happens to a 1.0 server when it gets an absoluteURI from a > 1.1 client in the request? Isn't it the case that 1.0 servers (except > for proxies) expect request URIs without the scheme, host, or port? It should be clear from the spec that 1.1 clients won't send absoluteURIs to 1.0 servers. - Larry
