Hi, As I've discussed during my session at the contributor's meetup, I'm interested in implementing Client-Hints <http://igrigorik.github.io/http-client-hints/> in WebKit.
For those unfamiliar with it, Client-Hints is a standard destined to improve content negotiation, and enable the browser to advertise various characteristics to the server along with resource requests, so that the server can adapt its responses to these characteristics in a cache friendly way. It was conceived to enable and facilitate server-side based responsive images solutions. The main use-cases for that are automatic optimization of legacy Web content, where it's not always easy to go back and modify the HTML, as well as external image optimization solutions that prefer content negotiation over HTML modification. I'd like to emphasize that this effort is orthogonal to the <picture> effort. (and the use-cases covered by each are orthogonal as well) Since I intend to go ahead with implementation soon, I wanted to share my intentions with the wider WebKit community and gather feedback at this early stage. Cheers :) Yoav
