It is expected (i.e. developers should do it, or at least try to, because there are clear advantages with no drawback at all) that the Last-Modified be based on the timestamp of data, templates, and "code" that participated in generating the page (or to make it simpler, it could be only the data). There's little chance that a developer not providing a Last-Modified value along those lines would do it for another response header. -- Thomas Broyer /tɔ.ma.bʁwa.je/
