Hey Folks, Requesting verification for the reported Errata 7695[1] for RFC 9111#section 4.3.2-4[2]. I am okay with moving the Errata to 9110 section-13.1.1 and section 13.1.4 which talks about If-Match and If-Unmodified-Since header pertaining to cache with "MAY ignore" directive based upon the input received.
