I see that we have warn code 214, "Transformation applied," which makes me wonder about the relationship (whether or not we go with the proposal below). The 203 status was defined in 1993 (IIRC) and later implemented in proxies like Commentor (IIRC). I don't know if anything depends on it today, but it is known and usable by Apache httpd. Warnings were added in 1996 and, AFAIK, only implemented for the purpose of server-side RFC compliance. Apache httpd's mod_filter adds it while filtering content as a proxy (it does not set 203 because it can filter error content, though I could change that if some other checks in the code are fixed). I do not know of any clients that check for either one, since there isn't much they can do about it. ....Roy
