Hello, I am looking at the json endpoints of modules served from pypi.python.orgin order to obtain more info about a package like download count, author, description etc. e.g.
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Django/json I noticed that the response headers do not contain info like Last-Modified or Etag. Thus if I am requesting the above link periodically e.g. (to see if the download count has changed), I cannot make use of any conditional GETs (e.g. by using If-None-Match, If-Modified-Since etc). I have to hit the endpoint again and parse the info again. (even if nothing has changed) Can this be added to the response headers? or what is the recommended approach... thx Jim
