-----------------------------------------
Hi John,
The idea of the Monsoon project started from this same jira on HC :) I started
to follow the discussions that are taking place on the IETF HyBi working group
and to search for tools/frameworks that might come in handy. I recently started
Monsoon as an Apache Lab in order to experiment what a websocket implementation
implies.
At the moment, the project is in a phase where I created an initial design and
I'm implementing a Java client. The primary goals of the project would be to
support the various versions of IETF drafts (both client and server) as they
evolve and offer feedback to the IETF working group. If things go well, having
multiple language support and support for various protocols over websockets
would be the long term goals.
Regarding the graduation from the Labs area, both the Incubator and HC
subproject look like good options. I strongly believe that the HC community
would have a great impact on Monsoon as they have valuable experience with this
type of project.
Being in the labs area, Monsoon doesn't have a dedicated mailing list so I will
share my contact information in case anyone else bumps into this jira as well
(fmoga at apache dot org). I'm also planning to be available on a dedicated
freenode channel as much as possible (#monsoon).
It's great seeing your interest and your help would be very much welcome given
your experience on this topic.
Thanks,
Florian

> Websocket are designed for browser use but I see useful use cases in a java
> client as well:
> - java clients for existing websites where changes are pushed to clients
> using websockets
> - use of websockets to tunnel through firewalls
> - put all communication behind single port on servlet engine.
> A good example on emerging use is websocket+stomp
> (http://jmesnil.net/stomp-websocket/doc/,
> http://www.nighttale.net/activemq/activemq-54-stomp-over-web-sockets.html)
> so I believe hc should support websocket clients.
