James Leigh commented on HTTPCLIENT-1353:
-----------------------------------------

The document is a draft. The latest HTTP/1.1 draft is available here: 
http://tools.ietf.org/wg/httpbis/

The draft was started in 2007 and has see a lot of progress over the last year 
and will (soon) supersede RFC 2616 as the definition of HTTP/1.1.

I believe Chromium can cache 303 responses.

> The current HTTP draft indicates that 303 is actually cacheable after all, if 
> indicated by the Cache-Control header.
> http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/1.1/rfc2616bis/draft-lafon-rfc2616bis-latest.html#rfc.issue.i70-cacheability-of-303
> org.apache.http.impl.client.cache.ResponseCachingPolicy should be changed so 
> that 303 (See Other) is not included in the uncacheableStatuses.
