Description

Raised by Nathan in <​http:///www.w3.org/mid/4BF3F78B.3010506@webr3.org>:

The HTTP spec specifies "The PUT method requests that the enclosed entity be stored at the supplied request-target." and under p1 messaging 4.2 "The exact resource identified by an Internet request is determined by examining both the request-target and the Host header field."

The above would lead me to believe that in both an http and https request (when using the 'path-absolute') that the resource identified in both cases is a scheme-less concatenation of host & 'path-absolute'. However when an the request-target is an absolute-URI then..? (do we chop the schemes off to get the resource identified?)"

Flipping to Editorial; clearly this is just an artefact of the confusion around request-target, etc.
