Fantastic! I assume the rsync-http now know of the vastly superior karma of crcsync over the 2-hash method of rsync. If the Apache mods and Mozilla speak the same protocol, then machines behind bandwidth-constrained links will be in much better shape. I can see 3G-internet providers pushing this too. Also cc'ing Jim Gettys -- our long-held hope is that the resulting extension to the http protocol is something that can be folded into a future http spec.
