Hi All, Sec 7.2, last sentence: "... otherwise stated otherwise." -> "... unless stated otherwise." I'm also wondering if draft-snell-http-prefer <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-snell-http-prefer> can have any effect on the cacheability of responses to PUT/POST, namely a response that includes Preference-Applied:return=representation. Since the purpose of return=representation is to eliminate the need for a subsequent GET, it would seem to me that the response could be used to update a cache. The current language in p2 and p6 doesn't appear to leave any wiggle room for an "extension" such as Prefer. Of course, I'm the farthest thing from a HTTP cache expert and might have missed such text and/or don't understand the implications of allowing such a thing. -- Kenneth Murchison Principal Systems Software Engineer Carnegie Mellon University
