 HTTP/1.1 Pipelining FAQ
This does not mean that servers are required to pipeline responses, but that they are required to not fail if a client chooses to pipeline requests.
Well, pipelining many requests can be costly if the connection closes prematurely because we would have wasted time writing requests to the network, only to have to repeat them on a new connection.
A naive approach may be to simply cancel the pipeline and re-issue all requests.

"Pipeline" was released in 1962 and became a regional hit in Southern California.

Besides the route to Multan, another proposed spur of the pipeline would have ended on the Pakistan coast, where an estimated one million barrels of LNG per day could be shipped to Japan and Korea, the largest consumers of LNG in the world.
If that pipeline were to be constructed, Turkmenistan signed an agreement that it would be built by Bechtel and GE Capital Services -- the same American companies that were Enron's business partners in the Dabhol power plant.
A chief benefactor in the trans-Caspian pipeline deal would have been Halliburton, the huge oil pipeline construction firm which was previously headed by Cheney.
