The DI glossary defines "Delivery Unit" as A set of material transferred between two cooperating web programs as the response to a single HTTP request. The transfer might, for example, be between an origin server and a user agent. Users are not normally aware of individual delivery units. (<http://www.w3.org/TR/di-gloss/#def-delivery-unit>) So this cannot mean an (X)HTML document plus the referenced images, scripts, style sheets, etc, because they are retrieved by different HTTP requests each. So what is a delivery unit then? -- Johannes Koch In te domine speravi; non confundar in aeternum. (Te Deum, 4th cent.)
