>          Key: MODPYTHON-71
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-71
>      Project: mod_python
>         Type: Bug
>   Components: core
>     Versions: 3.1.4, 3.1.3, 2.7.10, 3.2.7
>     Reporter: Nicolas Lehuen
>     Priority: Minor

>
> RFC 2616, 9.4 HEAD :
> 8<---8<---8<---8<---8<---
>  The HEAD method is identical to GET except that the server MUST NOT return
>  a message-body in the response. The metainformation contained in the HTTP
>  headers in response to a HEAD request SHOULD be identical to the
>  information sent in response to a GET request.
> 8<---8<---8<---8<---8<---
> Could we make sure that nothing is returned to the client ? Perhaps by making sure that req.write does nothing whenever the request method is HEAD ?
