> This document specifies a way to create a stateful session with HTTP
> requests and responses.  It describes two new headers, Cookie and Set-
> Cookie2, which carry state information between participating origin
> servers and user agents.  The method described here differs from
> Netscape's Cookie proposal, but it can interoperate with HTTP/1.0 user
> agents that use Netscape's method.  (See the HISTORICAL section.)

> This document reflects implementation experience with RFC 2109 and
> obsoletes it.

I am not aware of any comments on this draft since its release
on June 20.

Unless there are any new objections, we will submit this as Proposed
Standard on July 15.
