[uf-discuss] HTTP profile header proposal

[Scott Reynen]

Via Danny Ayers' blog [1], Mark Nottingham's proposal to add profiles  
to HTTP headers seems very relevant to microformats:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-nottingham-http-link- 
header-00.txt

It would allow for HEAD requests to identify pages containing  
microformats without downloading the full document.

Peace,
Scott
