We are ] focusing on getting a proposed standard for a new version of HTTP with ] an aggressive schedule: submission of a Proposed Standard by May 1. ] This schedule will mean dropping some issues and features in this ] first standards-track version and considering them for standardization ] in a subsequent version. Of top priority are those fixes that will ] help relieve HTTP-caused Internet congestion: host identification, ] caching, persistent connections. ] ] We had formed a number of subgroups to evaluate the HTTP/1.1 draft. ] In our two originally scheduled meetings, we reviewed the subgroup's ] conclusions and open issues, in the areas of caching, persistent ] connections, content negotiation, state management, range retrieval, ] authentication, extension methods, and extension methods. In ] addition, we also had a lively and productive interaction with the WTS ] members where HTTP security work is proceeding, and a third meeting on ] Thursday to triage our task list and assign ownership: ] ] http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/Protocols/HTTP/Issues/http-wg.html ] ] Jim Gettys is now the lead editor. ] ] ] ] ]
