My suggestion here is that you can rely on HTTP 1.1 cache control semantics. Specifically, HTTP 1.1 allows pages to define a refresh/expiration time. It also allows them to specify they they should not be cached at all. My point is that a page that does not expire before the computation outside the IOMonad completes should be ok. I suppose it would be really elegant if we could define a new net monad(?) which allows us to reason generally about computations with different expiration times, but that goes far beyond my expertise. -Alex- ___________________________________________________________________ S.
