So, I think the resolution here is actually pretty minor; we just need to add text to p2 7.3 that reflects this; e.g., > > """A Location header on a 3xx response indicates that a client MAY automatically redirect to the URI provided; see [ref to Location header].""" > > Comments? > ... But that just repeats something the definition of 300 already says, right? "If the server has a preferred choice of representation, it SHOULD include the specific URI for that representation in the Location field; user agents MAY use the Location field value for automatic redirection." -- <http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-httpbis-p2-semantics-17.html#rfc.section.7.3.1.p.3> Best regards, Julian
