Topic: HTTP redirects

Hi all,
I have nothing seen in the documentation how to handle HTTP redirects.
There is always a "trailing slash" problem with application servers which redirects a client to the correct endpoint. There is nothing mentioned about how the client should behave in this case.
The WebSub specs says the subscriber _should_ follow redirects.

Hey Thorsten,

Apologies for the very delayed response. It seems reasonable for the subscriber to follow redirects, especially since WebSub calls it out explicitly.

Would you mind creating an issue at https://github.com/fhircast/docs/issues (and even a PR is you're feeling adventurous and we'll review)?

Hi Isaac,
I have created the Issue #58 "HTTP redirect handling" and a PR will come.
