Good point - we also have a "home grown" cometd approach which we use
for server push to our GWT application, so something built into the http
server would definitely be of interest

Hi,
Just my 2 cents.
any plan to support Cometd ?
We slightly change the current HTTP Service to support Cometd. I don't
see any issue to do the same on Sten's version.
(of course, I can send what we quickly did).
As a reminder, Cometd is an HTTP based MOM, allowing (after a
handshake) a server to notify browser. In Ajax-based interaction, the
client (periodically) query the server. With Comet, the server
notifies the clients.
As you can imagine, this is definitely important for dynamic web
application.

Clement

Sten - sounds like you've done a great job, kudos.
Felix/Marcel - sounds like you guys are happy with the approach and code
>From our side, we can certainly run some "real world" compatibility
tests - which isn't to say in fact that Sten's new service would be
wrong and the current one right, just whether thenew version breaks
anything present in the exisiting service. If it does, I'm sure it'll
either be fixable, or something that's actually not correct in the
current service - so not a major issue. It'll be useful though to be
able to advise other Felix guys of anything that might differ and
need application changes. I'm happy to make time to look at this
next week.
After that - do we just call a vote? I'm guessing Sten, we also need
to propose you as a committter for maintenance?
Great progress though - the current Http service has served us pretty
well, but it's always been on the list to have cleaner and fuller
solution
