To wrap up discussion of http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-abarth-origin-00 I'd note that the draft does not identify an intended status, nor have we been asked for a review by the IESG or RFC Editor (which presumably they might do when publication is requested). As such, this is just a summary of the discussion to date. It appears that, based on feedback on this list: 1) there is little interest in implementing this header (at least in this community), and 2) a number of people question the value of adding this new header, and 3) a number of people believe that the Referer header could be used to achieve most of the goals of the draft. To aid in (3), we have opened an issue http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/httpbis/trac/ticket/144 Adam, please help me clarify any points above which you don't believe are justified by discussion on this list. Also, I now you were working on a draft -01; if you still intend to publish it, we will of course be happy to provide feedback. Cheers, -- Mark Nottingham http://www.mnot.net/
