I wonder how much transatlantic bandwidth is wasted because > the cache doesn't handle 0.9. The caches aren't currently in a position where they could handle all the HTTP requests that are being made from our network, so the point is moot. Having said that, the hope is to install more capacity as soon as we a) have something operating more stably than at present (see other recent posts I've made) b) I finish some of my current investigation work and demonstrate conclusively that it really really is important. ;) There is supposed to be some rudimentary 0.9 request support in Squid, but it doesn't work right and isn't implemented correctly in any case. If people who really do only have 0.9 browsers, that can still use proxies, (and who really can't upgrade because there is no other browser for that OS for them to use) would like to pass details onto me then I will gladly listen and get an idea of the size of this problem. -- jrg.
