Thought i'd note -- i just went to have a look at this draft (i assume
ftp://ftp.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-holtman-http-negotiation-03.txt
is the current version) and i'd like to say i rather like it, for what
that's worth. I'd be happy to see implementations of it get rolling!
The sooner they appear, the faster all kinds of problems will be solved.
While skimming it through i wondered about two things:
Why do feature expressions allow "<=" but not ">=" ? And as for the
following note:

can i ask why?
