HTTP/1.1 already requires servers to handle chunked encoding in requests: "All HTTP/1.1 applications MUST be able to receive and decode the "chunked" transfer-coding, and MUST ignore chunk-extension extensions they do not understand." (RFC 2616, 3.6) So gatewaying to 1.1 shouldn't be a problem at all, as no buffering is needed. If gatewaying to 1.0 servers is the problem than we seriously should consider giving up on *that* goal. Speaking of which - why *exactly* is gatewaying to 1.0 a problem? Best regards, Julian
