This mailing list has been pretty quiet. I posed a bunch of questions over the past month or so, but I haven't seen resolutions. I'll summarize: 1) <http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/hypermail/1998q2/0031.html> (Digest) a) No definition for non-terminal request-digest. b) In Authorization, the client can omit cnonce=. If qop=auth-int and cnonce is omitted, should Authentication-Info in the server's response say 'cnonce=""', or should cnonce be omitted there, too? 2) <http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/hypermail/1998q2/0035.html> Recommending that the (Digest) nonce include Etag seems like a bad idea -- it makes the nonce non-reusable for other entities. 3) <http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/hypermail/1998q2/0040.html> (Digest) In a response that sends multipart/byteranges, does the digest-uri-value of A2 digest the MIME headers and separators? 4) <http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/hypermail/1998q2/0069.html> I think allowing TE: identity; q=0 is a bad idea. I think "identity" should always be allowed. Dave Kristol
