I don't think so.  IINM, HTTP caching only comes into play when a client 
sends a subsequent HTTP request message that may (or may not) be 
satisfied by a cached HTTP response message.

"Clients access the directory by sending a GET request to the directory 
URL" does not require the client to ever send a subsequent HTTP request 
message to the directory URL.
