> - HTTP/1.1 & digest: > Expecting RFC Real Soon Now. > Complaints, editorial advice, ambiguities welcome. 13.1.2 Warnings says: ... Warnings are always cachable, because they never weaken the transparency of a response. This means that warnings can be passed to HTTP/1.0 caches without danger; such caches will simply pass the warning along as an entity-header in the response. ... This is not right. HTTP/1.0 cache will cache this header, and the Warning will remain in the cache file even if the entity is up-to-date checked later. So clients could e.g. see a warning saying that the response may be stale even if the proxy just did an up-to-date check and it was ok.
