I would like to send a 204 No Content header as specified in the http://www.w3.org/TR/eventsource/ definition. Is this possible?

Hi,

no, this is not possible, because we would have to keep a state on the server to, when the client tries to reconnect, send him a 204 header response. But when or how release this state on the server?
