[612] Discussion

DR609 of the current draft [1] was ballotted to receive more discussion.
To kick this off I'd like to reiterate the content of the requirement
and mention some of the reasons why it was considered apt for more
discussion.

Current text:

-----
DR612
The XP specification must provide a normative description of the default
binding of XP to HTTP. This binding, while normative, is not to be
exclusive. Any protocol binding to HTTP must respect the semantics of HTTP
and should demonstrate that it can co-exist with existing HTTP/1.0 and
HTTP/1.1 applications.
-----

Many of the ballots that proposed further discussion for this requirement
commented on wording regarding the HTTP usage by current browsers. This
wording has been removed from the text above.


Comments and discussion encouraged :)
