ALPN will be supported as soon as it is supported by the Java platform (which is not going to happen until Java 9). ALPN can be used to advertise server protocol capabilities at the time of SSL handshake and allow clients to pick the desired protocol from the list of supported protocols. If one knows supported protocols beforehand ALPN is completely useless. Clients can go straight to using HTTP/2 if the server is known to support it. In the next release of HttpCore I would like to add protocol detection logic to enable endpoints to detect HTTP protocol version by examining the first packet received from the opposite endpoint. This in my opinion would be a much more practical feature. ALPN presently is very low on my priority list. Having said that ALPN support contribution would be welcome if someone is willing to develop it.
