Kevin, can you help me to understand why we would express this set of
preferences in the Accept header for "/"?
Its unclear to me why, by default, we would have that line?
(I understand what it does, just not which problem it solves.)
Accept: text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, *; q=.2, */*; q=.2
Thanks,
Tim
