A revised version of our draft on 'Upgrading to TLS Within HTTP/1.1' (draft-ietf-tls-http-upgrade-02.txt) has been sent to IANA, and so should shortly be available in the usual repositories. It is available now from: http://www.agranat.com/fs/public/lawrence/tls-http-upgrade This revision: - Clarifies that the https scheme is not modified by this proposal; it continues to mean 'SSL on TCP port 443'. - Re-introduces the CONNECT method, to establish an end-to-end-tunnel across proxies, if necessary before UPGRADE'ing. This is a standards- track definition of the existing installed base. It is based on Ari Luotonen's original drafts, but used here to tunnel at port 80 instead of 443. - Uses multiple Upgrade tokens to represent a "stack" of protocols which work together. In this case, "Upgrade: TLS/1.0, HTTP/1.1" -- Rohit Khare <rohit@4k-associates.com>, Scott Lawrence <lawrence@agranat.com>
