Thanks for doing this, this looks pretty good. Could you write some unit tests for the etag stuff? |

I may need your help - I tried following your tests but got confused (it was late though) Can you give me some direction. |

ETAG Support
By using ETags we can query the server and only download data if we do not already have the latest version i.e. if we get a 304 (NotModified) then we update the cache entry with a new expired time otherwise we resort to the "normal" path.
Customised Cache Time Management
Allows a variable expiry cache time i.e. to be calculated based on "other" factors rather than just be a static time.
