Hello list,

I am a student who would like to participate in the Google Summer of Code,
and I have a particular project idea connected to networking and Mozilla:

The project would be about implementing an early prototype server for the
> HTTP/2 protocol in JavaScript (node.js) by the end of the summer with
> emphasis on well documented code and verbose debugging output. I asked the
> people on the HTTP/2 mailing list and they said that the first version of
> the standard should be ready for prototyping by early summer. Having an
> early prototype server that is well documented, and logs very verbosely
> (packet-by-packet if needed) could be useful for developing client software
> for the HTTP/2 protocol.
>

The motivation would be that this project could provide the HTTP working
group some feedback (e.g. discovering ambiguities in the text, etc.), and
that it could help engineers at Mozilla in prototyping HTTP/2 support.

I would like to ask you about the latter assumption: do you agree that a
prototype server like this could help in implementing HTTP/2 for Mozilla
products? If yes, what features could make it even more suitable for that
purpose? Is it on the roadmap to prototype HTTP/2 support in the not so
distant future?

Thank you for taking the time to share you thoughts!

Regards,
  Gábor Molnár
