"Pushed responses are considered fresh on the origin server (...) at the time that the response is generated." Makes sense to me, although it starts to sound a bit no-brainish. And regarding your other question: > Also, which response is the point of reference for > validity/freshness? The proposed sentence seems to refer to a pushed > response being "validated" at the time that the pushed response > itself was generated.

It can only be fresh at the time the pushed response itself is generated, surely. The original response triggered the *need* for the pushed resource, but there's nothing stopping the value of that pushed resource changing between the need being determined and bytes being transmitted. -- Matthew Kerwin http://matthew.kerwin.net.au/
