   W3C congratulates the IETF for the approval by the IESG of the
   HTTP/2 draft, which represents a major update on the core
   protocol of the World Wide Web. This new version of HTTP will
   allow better and faster Web Applications, and help reduce the
   gap between installable and Web applications. It will also
   boost interoperability, improve the path for secure
   connections, and reduce the need for some existing performance
   “hacks.”
