Hey folks. Unfortunately won't be able to attend the meeting in Singapore. A quick summary of recent updates on Client Hints: - We added Accept-CH-Lifetime <https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues/372> to allow origins to persist their hint preferences: - ACL should address one of the primary limitations we heard from implementers: they need hints to be available on navigation requests, not just subrequests. - Accept-CH-Lifetime preference is bound to the origin - e.g. 3P's pref on foo.com is bound to foo.com - We restricted *both* Accept-CH and Accept-CH-Lifetime opt-in to secure transports - Effectively, CH is now HTTPS-only. - Above updates also resulted in substantial rewrite of the security considerations <http://httpwg.org/http-extensions/client-hints.html#security-considerations> section. - Kudos to Martin for lots of help on this one. Also, lots of other smaller (editorial) updates — see #373 <https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/pull/373> for full details. PTAL and would appreciate any feedback. ig *p.s. I'll be offline until early Dec, apologies upfront for tardy replies.*
