I've added recent reports from Lester Waters of Microsoft, Robert Polansky of Raptor (Axent), Mike Belshe of Netscape; my thanks to them for filing them. There have been over 20 reports filed to date. I encourage others to submit reports. There are still some significant 1.1 implementations out there for which I don't have data. To make it easier to update reports, if people who have filed wish to drop me a note saying things like "I finished testing feature XXX", or "I found that my testing of feature XXX was broken or in error", I am willing to edit the existing reports to save people the effort of filling out the very long form from scratch... Anyone who can knock of features that don't have enough tested implementations would be highly appreciated... I've automated generating the reports so that updating that page is now easy for me to do. See: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/Forum/Reports/ for the current state of reports. It has a rollup of all the data, and a list of features for which we are not Using the on-line data in the reprot should make it easier to figure out who has implementations to test against. There are a few features where I am skeptical proper testing has been done, which I plan to understand further to make myself confident we've met IETF rules. The list of untested implentations on the base spec continues to shrink. Some of the leftover features below are actually incorrect, as there are often no special requirements on proxies; we don't really need proxy implementations for those features (though we wouldn't mind having them; in fact, one might claim that a proxy that just passes the response back from the origin server is correct), and that therefore we have implementations in hand in any case... Features that do not have requirements on proxies include 202 Accepted, 203 Non-Authoritative Information, 205 Reset Content, 300 Multiple Choices, 303 See Other, 305 Multiple Choices, 410 Gone, 411 Length Required, 412 Precondition Failed, 413 Request Entity Too Large, 414 Request-URI Too Long, Content-MD5, TE, Trailer (if my quick look at the spec is correct).

Our thanks to Ronald Tschalär, who has done a complete client implementation (though hasn't had a proxy to test the proxy authentication against).
