Serving a blank manifest works in the Gears model as well. I considered an API to stop the caching, but that doesn't really work, since it requires that the file first be updated, which itself first requires the manifest to be updated... might as well just use the blank manifest. Would be nice to have a better way to end caching though... -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
