+   The first digit of the Status-Code defines the class of response. The
+   last two digits do not have any categorization role. There are 5
+   values for the first digit:
+  <list style="symbols">
+    <t>
+      1xx: Informational - Request received, continuing process
+    </t>
+    <t>
+      2xx: Success - The action was successfully received,
+        understood, and accepted
+    </t>
+    <t>
+      3xx: Redirection - Further action must be taken in order to
+        complete the request
+    </t>
+    <t>
+      4xx: Client Error - The request contains bad syntax or cannot
+        be fulfilled
+    </t>
+    <t>
+      5xx: Server Error - The server failed to fulfill an apparently
+        valid request
+    </t>
+  </list>
+</t>

    Each Status-Code is described below, including any metadata required
    in the response.
