Relax... First, I had HEAD, PUT and DELETE in mind as stuff you usually don't need to support explicitly as a web developer... I admit I went a bit overboard with saying "can completely ignore the lion's share" but I obviously didn't mean you should go out of your way to skip the absolute basics that caching, content negotiation, error codes etc. are. I wasn't "advising" against learning HTTP, I just think lots of web developers get away with not learning much about it (I'm NOT saying that's a good thing.) edit: Damn, the more I reread my previous post the stupider it sounds :|
