Deployment of draft-ietf-httpbis-cice (Client-Initiated Content-Encoding)

<https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-httpbis-cice>


I am planning to start to advise A-E with 415 responses.

Questions to the working group:

1. Does CICE alone address the concern to support/enable request
compression in U-A?
2. I suspect the success rate of non-negotiated use of (gzip) request
compression will be very high over Internet, esp. if the server end-point
is managed by the content author. Any suggestion otherwise?
3. Any known deployment of gzip/brotli compression in browsers?

Thanks.

We haven't seen too much discussion on this draft after we adopted.
Working on the theory that this is because it's uncontroversial and
straightforward, I'm making a Working Group Last Call to solicit any
further issues, comment or support.

<https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-httpbis-cice>

Please have a read through and bring any substantial issues up
on-list. Editorial issues can go straight to github:
  https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Acice

If you support publication of the draft (whether or not you find
issues), that would be useful to know.

WGLC will end on 2015-06-22.

Regards,
