Hi, What's the best place to find details on planned features for HTTP/2 support?
I've only been looking at HTTP/2 for a few days, so forgive me if this is already covered. It seems pretty obvious to me that it provides an opportunity for potentially significant performance gains if changes are made to the xCGI model, and potentially web applications. Specifically, since there is a quasi-persistent [1] connection between a browser and a server, serialisation of a session object between page requests is no longer necessary, and it can become bound to the transport layer - whilst this may seem to introduce possible race conditions between pages, this is no different from concurrent requests on the same session under HTTP/1.x. A secondary requirement is a mechanism to implement server-push, so that <language-of-choice> can specify page dependencies, rather than requiring inspection of content within the server. Is any work currently being done in this direction? Phil [1] Since there needs to be periodic SSL renegotiation which would cause reconnects, as well as sub-optimal network conditions on wireless and mobile networks (and indeed, devices flip-flopping between the two). draft-bishop-support-reneg-00 if adopted should address this in optimal network conditions.
