That seems fine; btw there is a much better http reference these days:
http://tools.ietf.org/wg/httpbis/
Many unclear/ambiguous regions of the standard have been clarified and fixed.
The squid in the DC is acting as a front-end server: its allowed to
pretend to be the backend; so we can have loggerhead offer year-long
caching to squid, and tell squid to only offer 1 day or whatever to
clients. Broadly though:
-- if the content will change /meaning/ cache with care
-- if the content won't change at all - cache aggressively.
Using new URL's is a great way to move things into the won't-change at
all category.
