Re: Finding consensus on alt-svc, was: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-nottingham-httpbis-alt-svc as a normative reference in http/2

Trying to summarize what we heard so far (please correct me if I'm wrong):

a) Rob Trace

alt-svc is not needed (will use upgrade on port 80), work on alt-svc 
shouldn't block progress

b) 陈智昌

alt-svc is useful (needed?), but doesn't want a normative reference to a 
document that includes a definition of the Alt-Svc header field, because 
he's not planning to support it


I believe Rob's concern can be addressed by getting the work done ASAP.

I believe William's concern can be addressed by making it crystal clear 
that although the spec defines an HTTP header field, support for that 
header field is purely optional.

Best regards, Julian
