Yes. That's a bit OTT IMO and unfortunately liable to mislead as to IETF process if not read very carefully. > The name of that HTTPBis Working Group draft already sounds suspicious: > > Explicit Trusted Proxy in HTTP/2.0 > draft-loreto-httpbis-trusted-proxy20-01 > http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-loreto-httpbis-trusted-proxy20-01 That is NOT an httpbis working group draft. Anyone can write an I-D, that is an input to a working group saying what the authors think. The topic of proxies is a valid one for HTTP and is being discussed on the WG list. The above is one input. Other inputs were mails poking holes in this one. Yet others had other points to make. > I do not know the details of the processes of the IETF: > What can I do to help kill that proposal? If you are interested in HTTP, then subscribe to the WG list, check the archives to see if what you want to say has been said (please!) and then contribute like anyone else. Details for the httpbis WG are at [1]. Cheers, S.
