To name this mechanism , I call it as > 'non-order processing'. I work on a project for anonymous WWW access. It will base on HTTP/1.1 If you send a *big* packet through a MIX-Net (like Mixmaster, can only work with a constant block size) a Cache-Proxy must connect the smaller parts. You can use the Content-Range Field but if some anonymous users use the same Range than they will get wasted data. So we need also a Message-ID or 'Request-ID'. This Message-ID should be defined for Request and Response and *randomly* choose by the client/server. If a server, (user?), proxy or MIX detect a collision than a warning or error can be response to the client (may be server?). Bye Uwe Danz (my English is too bad: same mistakes corrected)
