The following proposals add fields to the response header of successful
requests.
Standard successful response header (for comparison):
20 text/gemini; charset=utf-8
These additions are backwards-compatible as specified in RFC 2045:
MIME implementations must ignore any parameters whose names they do not recognize.
The terms MAY, SHOULD and SHOULD NOT are defined in RFC 2119.
Gemini servers MAY include a duration (in seconds) which a client SHOULD cache
a resource when the request is successful. When a cache duration of 0 or
less is provided, clients SHOULD NOT cache the resource.
Cache for one week:
20 text/gemini; charset=utf-8; cache=604800
Do not cache:
20 text/gemini; charset=utf-8; cache=0
Gemini servers SHOULD include the size (in bytes) of the response body when the
request is successful. Clients SHOULD utilize this information when downloading
files to indicate progress.
20 text/gemini; charset=utf-8; size=1108
