Hello, Today I stumbled upon a somewhat dated Pylons project called Guillotine <https://github.com/Pylons/guillotine>, a WSGI middleware <https://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid/en/1.10-branch/glossary.html#term-middleware> extension. It seems to have only one purpose: rewrite the request method of HEAD requests into GET.
Now I am curious about the *why*. A HEAD request is, as per documentation <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Methods/HEAD>, pretty much a GET without body. So what’s the purpose then of this particular extension and the rewrite? Much thanks, Jens -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
