I didn't realize that setting the date that far ahead was incorrect.
For our purposes here, expiration dates of less than one year in the
future will still show the same behavior.

I went ahead and wrote this myself.  I have implemented this as an
extension to the Cache Manager.  When a URL is successfully loaded, it
stores the Expires header value in the cache.  On subsequent requests
for the same URL, it short circuits the sample if the URL is present
in the cache and the expiration date is later then now.

I'd like to contribute this code back to the project.  What is the
best way to do so?
