Hi,
I'd like the manpage to document when new versions are fetched. Since websec
inspects the timestamp of an archived page and uses it in an additional HTML
header line for if-modified-since this should be written down somewhere, I
believe. Below is a patch that hints into the direction of the timestamp.
It may be worth adding the if-modified-since header as well. Please consider
it.
