No. I get things like
HTTP/1.1 401
Date: Mon, 28 Jan 2008 17:52:57 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.28 (Unix)
Connection: close
Content-Type: text/html

At least tell me what the number means. Something like "401 wrong hash" 
or "401 not arc"
I'm too lazy to seek that 401 mean Unauthorised and wonder which 
authenticating step failed.

Same goes with Code 200, what's wrong with "200 Accepted and indexed"?

HTTP/1.1 200
Date: Mon, 28 Jan 2008 18:01:09 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.28 (Unix)
Connection: close
Content-Type: text/html

<HEAD><TITLE>OK</TITLE></HEAD><H1>Content Accepted</H1>

Athough this is marginally better, giving an (invalid) html description.

I don't find that HTTP/1.0 clients should support answers with a greater 
version, just that they
should support HTTP/0.9 and HTTP/1.0 answers. But as i made it 
supporting both HTTP/1.0
and HTTP/1.1 resposnes, I don't care too much :P
