We have already completely closed out all of the issues for 'proposed standard'.

There is no point in having a 'subgroup' unless it is the group of 'those who have implemented HTTP/1.1', since the criteria for Draft Standard center around interoperable implementations. Here's the process: Everyone who has implemented an HTTP/1.1 client, server, or proxy is invited to review the issue list and note how they resolved the issue in their implementation. Send mail to http-wg@cuckoo.hpl.hp.com with your collected list. If an issue is about something that no one actually implemented, well, we don't need to spend any time on it, since we'll have to toss it when we go to Draft Standard anyway. Everyone else (those who have not implemented an HTTP/1.1 client, server or proxy), is asked to please hold their comments. Regards, Larry Masinter (as HTTP-WG chair)
