I did study it in quite some depth some years ago, trying to improve the existing draft for HTTP over SCTP. It's quite simple mapping provided one dares to touch the HTTP transport layer (chunking, content-length etc) which the primary authors of that draft did not want to. A little more work is needed to address some shortcomings in the semantics of SCTP (lack of per stream fin and/or rst capabilities). It's was said something like that is coming, but not sure on the details. Hope to get back to this to finalize a proposal for efficient and reliable HTTP over SCTP. Regards Henrik
