Just catching up with this list.. It's interesting you should say that about Content-Location, I made a similar comment in a blog post [1] and there seemed to be some confusion over the exact semantics of the header.
As an aside, does anyone know where google/yahoo/MSN discuss this stuff? Is it in a public setting, or is it all behind-doors talks? -Ciaran McNulty [1] http://tinyurl.com/daj7j8 On Sun, Feb 15, 2009 at 4:27 PM, Toby A Inkster <m...@tobyinkster.co.uk> wrote: > Brian Suda wrote: > >> Google has started to use rel-canonical to specific the best URL for >> page information. > > It is a shame they don't seem to have openly discussed this idea before > implementing it.
