|---|
| 453 | <p>The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is an application-level protocol for distributed, collaborative, hypermedia information |
|---|
| 454 | systems. HTTP has been in use by the World Wide Web global information initiative since 1990. This document is Part 2 of the |
|---|
| 455 | seven-part specification that defines the protocol referred to as "HTTP/1.1" and, taken together, obsoletes RFC 2616. Part |
|---|
| 456 | 2 defines the semantics of HTTP messages as expressed by request methods, request-header fields, response status codes, and |
|---|
| 457 | response-header fields. |

| 458 | </p> |
|---|
| 459 | <h1 id="rfc.note.1"><a href="#rfc.note.1">Editorial Note (To be removed by RFC Editor)</a></h1> |
|---|
| 460 | <p>This version of the HTTP specification contains only minimal editorial changes from <a href="#RFC2616" id="rfc.xref.RFC2616.1"><cite title="Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1">[RFC2616]</cite></a> (abstract, introductory paragraph, and authors' addresses). All other changes are due to partitioning the original into seven |
|---|
| 461 | mostly independent parts. The intent is for readers of future drafts to able to use draft 00 as the basis for comparison when |
|---|
| 462 | the WG makes later changes to the specification text. This draft will shortly be followed by draft 01 (containing the first |
|---|
| 463 | round of changes that have already been agreed to on the mailing list). There is no point in reviewing this draft other than |
|---|
| 464 | to verify that the partitioning has been done correctly. Roy T. Fielding, Yves Lafon, and Julian Reschke will be the editors |
|---|
| 465 | after draft 00 is submitted. |
|---|
| 466 | </p> |
|---|
| 467 | <p>Discussion of this draft should take place on the HTTPBIS working group mailing list (ietf-http-wg@w3.org). The current issues |
|---|
| 468 | list is at <<a href="http://www3.tools.ietf.org/wg/httpbis/trac/report/11">http://www3.tools.ietf.org/wg/httpbis/trac/report/11</a>> and related documents (including fancy diffs) can be found at <<a href="http://www3.tools.ietf.org/wg/httpbis/">http://www3.tools.ietf.org/wg/httpbis/</a>>. |
