SO what am I trying to say? I'm wary of the value of technical design principles that cannot be technically assessed. My entry to this debate was trying to be clear about what was the meaning of "safe", where I saw two possibilities that could apply.

I didn't bother to define "safe" in the HTTP spec because there already exist far more definitive works in software engineering literature that define the term completely. A search for Nancy Leveson's research will pick up the appropriate definition.

A quick search reveals work that seems to deal with safety related to fault tolerance. I had the idea that "safe" in HTTP was a slightly different idea. Could you please provide a more specific reference, or an extra keyword or two to locate the right kind of definition?

Thanks,
