My take:  200 instead of 2xx ... I'm actually for better definition of areas like this.  Allowing for any 2xx response to be valid is a little confusing, especially since 204 is 2xx, and that precludes any body being sent at all.     As for the challenge being presented in the body ... servers don't respond to a POST with POST-formatted output.  I imagine the goal is simply to remove the need for any additional text processing, and to follow existing HTTP usage.

Wondering why the hub.challenge is naked in the response body, seems more symmetrical to send it back the same way you got it, as a name/value pair. If it's going to be naked, why not just stick it in a header? -Tim -- Jay Rossiter | Software Engineer/System Administrator Pioneering RSS Advertising Solutions jrossi...@pheedo.com | Phone: 503.896.6187 | Fax: 503.235.2216 Website: www.pheedo.com | RSS: www.pheedo.info/index.xml
