The HTTPbis working group currently is only chartered for maintenance 
work. Does that make HTTP/1.1 "frozen"? I don't think so, because we 
*do* change things that are broken.

Is HTTP/1.1 sufficient? That's a good question. We have discussions 
about that all over the place, for instance about making a bidirectional 
variant (ietf-hybi), about extensions for long-poll, or a major change 
to the message format and many other things (-> Waka).
