[...] While I appreciate your willingness to keep trying to modify SPDY, I think it is premature to do so, certainly until we know what HTTP/2.0 should actually do and how it should do it. For instance if we decide to do the envelope/substance split, (probably envelope/metadata/substance actually), that has pretty big implications for the requirements to the actual protocol. Such fundamental questions should be resolved before we waste time trying to fine-tune representations. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 phk@FreeBSD.ORG | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
