I wouldn’t be opposed to something like this, though I’m not entirely sure it’s going to be super useful. I’m not sure if a 415 is the correct response code since these are being sent as binary blobs as far as HTTP is concerned, but the Content-Type of the HTTP request will still be correct, but just the data inside it will be wrong, so I think that’s solidly a 400 error? Not that it’s super important, that’s an implementation detail :) > > I'm +1 for restricting the kinds of things people can upload though. — Donald Stufft _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
