Details

(Whiteboard: server) 

- GET provides an ETag value 
- the client may provide an If-None-Match header

if the collection was not changed since then, the GET returns a 304 Not Modified

The clients can use this to poll against the GET, and avoid hitting the Database when no changes where made
Note that XHR requests do not always work well with this technique, as the browser's own cache can get in the way.

The old app sync codebase is no longer going to be supported. Apps in the cloud will be under a different codebase. None of these bugs are valid anymore.
