Re: I-D Action: draft-ietf-httpbis-incremental-01.txt

Hello folks,

We have submitted -01 of the Incremental draft
<https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-httpbis-incremental-01.html>.

Since -00, issue #3143
<https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues/3143> was opened and that
led to the discussion of how requests could be rejected. We ended up
suggesting:

* for temporary refusal, use of 429 + proxy-status:
connection-limit-reached (PR #3144
<https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/pull/3144>) , and
* for permanent refusal (consider WAFs), use of 501 + proxy-status:
incremental_refused (PR #3145
<https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/pull/3145>).

Separately, we merged PR #3138
<https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/pull/3138> that encourages
endpoints (like a client HTTP library) to respect Incremental.

We have merged a couple of other PRs too, but they are editorial.

Please let us know what you think.
