In the physical world, not *necessary* in the information world. HTTP doesn't define how you manage your info structure in the physical world. $ curl -X DELETE -i http://example.org/toto This action requests to the server to remove the avaibility of tp://example.org/toto from the HTTP server, then I can return to the next GET a 410 Gone. BUT HTTP doesn't define what you should do with the "bag of bits" on the the filesystems. You could put it in a temporary directory, in /dev/null, keep it at the same place but sending a 410 Gone. -- Karl Dubost Montréal, QC, Canada http://www.la-grange.net/karl/
