-------------------------------------------

Hi Hiranya

Not sure I understand the requirement correctly.. if a content type is not 
specified, is it wrong to assume binary? Does it fail any known use cases?

I am particularly interested in ensuring that full REST support does go into 
1.3 release, as a user is waiting to use this facility.. and hence would be 
grateful if you could ensure the fixes for it is not broken, and take this case 
separate if possible

thanks

> Currently the NHTTP transport would assume an empty payload for response 
> messages which do not have the HTTP Content-Type header. According to the 
> HTTP/1.1 specification this should be handled as follows.
> <quote>
> Any HTTP/1.1 message containing an entity-body SHOULD include a Content-Type 
> header field defining the media type of that body. If and only if the media 
> type is not given by a Content-Type field, the recipient MAY attempt to guess 
> the media type via inspection of its content and/or the name extension(s) of 
> the URI used to identify the resource. If the media type remains unknown, the 
> recipient SHOULD treat it as type "application/octet-stream".
