Reading up on cache styles I always assumed (and I'm sure it happened like this in the past) that the 'Long' cache style API calls just give you an error if you request them multiple times before the cacheTimer expires. Is this still the case, as I'm seeing them on the live and test servers give me back information that has obviously been stored?

Example: https://api.eveonline.com/corp/ContactList.xml.aspx?keyID=&vCode=&characterID=

Has something changed or have I misunderstood something about the different cache styles?

Ignore the cache styles, and just obey the cachedUntil value - will make your life easier :)
