   Jo: sent Mark Nottingham a long email, but didn't get a reply

   <PhilA> I think you just join the BISHTTP list

   <PhilA> I was on it for a short time, it's open

   Jo: Dom gave me another contact that I haven't contacted yet

   <PhilA> They had a f2f in Vancouver recently I think

     [37] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/ietf-http-wg/2007OctDec/

   Dom: BISHTTP being presumably the list of the rechartered IETF WG
   that works on revising HTTP

   PhilA: the only requirement to join the WG is to join the mailing
   list, actually
   ... pretty active mailing list
   ... it's the old HTTP gang again

   Dom: they're "only" fixing HTTP 1.1, not creating HTTP 1.2

   <PhilA>

   .html

     [38] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/ietf-http-wg/2007OctDec/0108.html

   PhilA: indeed, they won't be adding new features
   ... they have a very restricted charter

   DKA: how does that affect our ability to put mobileOK hints in HTTP
   headers?

   PhilA: I don't think they will help - the charter forbids them to
   define new headers, IIRC
   ... it's unclear how this affects the status of promulgating the
   Link: header
   ... I don't know that the IETF process is to push an internet draft
   as RFC

   <jo> [the CT group just wants to add some values for the
   Cache-Control header]

   <scribe> ACTION: Jo to restart discussion on the TAG finding
   (ISSUE-222) on the public mailing list [recorded in
   [41]http://www.w3.org/2007/12/13-bpwg-minutes.html#action03]

   <trackbot-ng> Created ACTION-614 - Restart discussion on the TAG
   finding (ISSUE-222) on the public mailing list [on Jo Rabin - due
   2007-12-20].

     [42] http://www.w3.org/2005/MWI/BPWG/Group/track/issues/227

   (13 messages exchanged on this topic in the TF)

   Jo: there is mild support for going beyond Cache-Control and Vary
   ... my own view (which is not supported) is that if we only say so,
   we may as well have said 3 months ago

   DKA: I think we need to say something else

   Jo: if it's clear than something less brute-force than
   "no-transform" is needed (e.g. to allow compression by an
   intermediate, or adapting the image format, but don't relay my stuff
   out)
   ... then there is a need for something else
   ... the problem with no-transform in particular is [...]?

   kai: are you going to give instructions on how to handle specific
   parts of the content?

   Jo: no, the idea on the table is to day that "Cache-control:
   no-transform, ..." has a fail-safe interpretation for non-conforming
   proxies

   Kai: I'm wondering if we really have to worry about non-conforming
   proxies
   ... and not deal with those that don't follow the rules

   Jo: I agree-ish
   ... but there is a community agreement on how to fail safely these
   instructions
   ... is it in scope for our charter to invent new values for the
   cache-control header?
   ... it's clear we wouldn't want to invent new HTTP headers
   ... but having modifiers on the existing values might be OK-ish

   q,

   <DKA> PROPOSED RESOLUTION: new values for cache control headers is
   not new technology.

   <DKA> PROPOSED RESOLUTION: We will take over the IETF.

   <Kai> +1

   <Zakim> Kai, you wanted to say that I think caching already
   understood and used badly enough. We do not need to make it more
   complicated but should focus on correct usage of what exists

   <PhilA> Happy Christmas everyone

   <jo> [and hanukkah]

   <drooks> bye
