Ruby Forum Mongrel > [OT] HTTP headers status diagram

To paraphrase Woody Allen:

"Everything you always wanted to know about HTTP headers status, but
were afraid to ask"

Alternatively:

"An activity diagram to describe the resolution of HTTP response
status codes, given various headers."

Wow - a state diagram for HTTP response codes. I'm impressed you've put
this together - it ought to help people building new app servers for
sure (and it seems there's a new one every week). You should send this
up to W3 too - I've never seen anything like it on their site (but
haven't looked specifically either).

Nice one,

Steve
