I suggested a specific namespace, and asked for
comments, and got a
big yawn.
It seems to me one could subclass Article or something
so that the
namespace "Dynamic:" would never be cached, for example.
I ask again: comments?
Pages in the Special: namespace? They are sent with the followin
header bit:
Cache-Control: private, must-revalidate, max-age=0
Unless I misunderstand what you want, that should be perfectly
sensible for your purposes.
