Cache lists HTTP/1.1 as a normative reference when it could be informative #911

Closed royfielding closed 3 years ago

We spent all that time removing normative references from Semantics to HTTP/1.1 and yet Cache has several "see other" kinds of references to HTTP/1.1 (for security considerations) and then lists it as normative reference.

I think this can be fixed by the RFC editor.

Odd. I know we did the work to enable this; did we just forget to actually change the reference type?

I prefer fixing things as early as possible. Also, more feedback might come in before approval...
