Davey Shafik (http://pear.php.net/user/davey) has commented on the proposal for HTTP::HTTP_Cache. Comment: Seems to me that this package is kinda pointless. From the description of it on your blog, an MD5sum of the output is used to determine the viability of a cached item... If its not done on the output, then how can you tell if its changed? i.e. echo $_GET['name']; will be the same always in PHP code, but not in the output it shows. This means that the code must always be executed - thus, saving you nothing.
