-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Yan,
Namecoin would definitely be interested in something similar (we were actually discussing the possibility of exactly this yesterday). Maybe we could produce a list of relevant projects that would benefit from this? (The three that come to mind immediately are Tor, I2P, and Namecoin, but there may be others.) If there are more than a few projects that would benefit, then it might be interesting to find a neutral format for the HTTP header, so that we wouldn't have to list all the supported TLD's explicitly in the spec. (CCing to Namecoin dev list.) - -Jeremy Rand Lead Application Engineer, Namecoin Project On 11/02/2014 11:48 PM, yan wrote: > +tor-dev. tl;dr: Would be nice if there were an HTTP response > header that allows HTTPS servers to indicate their .onion domain > names so that HTTPS Everywhere can automatically redirect to the > .onion version in the future if the user chooses a "use THS when > available" preference. > > I imagine the header semantics and processing would be similar to > HSTS.
