Gili:
with response to response codes? Do idempotent methods have to return the same response code in the face of multiple invocations? Or are they allowed to return different response codes so long as the state is not modified by subsequent requests? See http://stackoverflow.com/q/741192/14731 for the discussion that fueled this question.
I've seen it brought up again and again in different discussions.
