ISSUE-93: Accept and Auth

AcceptLevels

Accept and Auth

State:

CLOSED

Product:

Linked Data Platform Spec

Raised by:

Henry Story

Opened on:

2014-01-15

Description:

Question 1:

Section 4.3.2 says the section on GET says:
[[
LDP servers must support the HTTP response headers defined in section 4.9 HTTP OPTIONS.
]]

Does this mean that GET SHOULD/MUST? also return the Accept headers?
(I would not be against).

Question 2:

When the server responds with an Accept header are these the headers that the server would allow the client with its authentication level to be used or would this be with any authentication level?
I think it should be the first, because otherwise any LDP server would presumably for every resource allow all methods. But if so could this be made more explicit in the spec?
