well, I just dug through the protocol docs on CERN, and tried making a
if-modified-since: query for the SIPB server index page, and it gave
it to me, in spite of it admitting that the document was last-modified
earlier. Please let me know if I've erred in my simulation of the
protocol, but the following exchange should have given me a "Not
Modified 304" reply, as I read the docs...
% telnet www.mit.edu 8001
