Hello,

my case is that I have data that is fine if it's stale for some
people, but I would of course not want everybody to have equally stale
data.

This becomes a problem however, for of course I use the appointed HTTP
caching headers per RFC 2616, section 13. To cut it briefly, I always
set the expiry to tomorrow 00:00 because this is an acceptable trade-
off for our purposes.

When we rolled this out, everybody would be getting stale data
however! It seemed the Google Frontend servers simply did not
revalidate, and why should they? After all, the headers are saying
it's OK until tomorrow.

So basically I *do want* this behavior, but I *do not want* it for the
scope that a reverse proxy provides - Google's got me by the balls
here, pretty much. How do I tell the GFE not to be a reverse caching
proxy?

Sincerely
-Ludvig Ericson, http://sendapatch.se/
