I still don't understand what it does or what it's for. Sorry. Someone else will likely have to document it.

It's trivial. If your webserver supports only the following methods: GET and HEAD, OPTIONS, but not POST. the request OPTIONS will return a response with a header Allow: OPTIONS GET HEAD


Looking forward for more docs ;)


We'll see if I find any more tuits in the next few weeks. The only one I'm likely to contribute to in the short term is Apache::TestMM. And I don't understand it too well at this point, anyway.

I guess I can take care of it. Just let me know which options are the most urgent that you need to work with.
