I'm very interested in this, and would be willing to help with the
spec work side of things. It's also been discussed on the HTTP mailing
list <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/ietf-http-wg/>.

Hi,
I've spoken to some SCTP related people about this before.
The trouble is:
* NOone's fleshed out how HTTP over SCTP should look;
* Noone's fleshed out how servers should choose HTTP over TCP vs SCTP.
They're the much more pressing questions.

Hello All,
What would you suggest should be the way to include SCTP support in
Squid 3.0 ?
My assumption here is that SCTP would be useful for clients (which
support SCTP) connecting using slow/lossy wireless type networks. My
goal is to experiment and compare the performance against TCP for
wireless networks.
So, I started with that and was easily able to add a config option
for
client-side and change the corresponding function
clientHttpConnectionsOpen() to set appropriate protocol type and it
worked just fine. But that would make it an SCTP only proxy.
We could also open up another listening port for SCTP, so that we can
have both SCTP and TCP simultaneously, where the origin server side
will always be TCP.
But I feel that I am missing something here. So, I would really
appreciate any suggestions or comments you may have.
Thanks for your time.
