Well, we need to come to agreement and re-charter, but I'd say we'll be able to have this kind of discussion in Vancouver, yes. WRT SPDY and server push, I'd suggest keeping it in, but making sure it's separable, so that the decision can be delayed until you have more data. Regards, -- Mark Nottingham http://www.mnot.net/
