> Right now, we cache the Date: header from the origin server, and upon cache hits, we return this cached Date: header to the UA as well. It seems most proxy caches will return the current date from the server itself as the Date: header. I'm suggesting we make it configurable (records.config) to send either the current proxy server date as the Date: header, or the cached Date: header.
> This could obviously be done as a plugin, but I think it'd be a useful built-in feature to have. I remember Souders complained about the fact that we use the cached Date: header, but that the RFC was unspecified in this regard (maybe the BIS will address this).
