Range "items" doesn't explain what the meaning is either. It just gives a really vague idea. What kind of items? "Dojo-Range: 6 items" seems clearer. Are caches allowed (in principle) to split/merge these ranges, if they knew how? Would such caches operate on the item syntax - i.e. structured JSON in the message body? -- Jamie
