I'm wondering what you mean by this? In what ways does varnish not
follow RFC 2616's recommendations / requirements for an HTTP cache? Do
you simply mean that this is because varnish is meant to be used in an
organization's internal infrastructure and that the RFC's language
about caching seems to be more in reference to downstream caches run
by third party organizations that are neither the client nor
associated with the organizations responsible for the original
content?
