Hello WIT area,
Our ADs have asked for reports on current work in the various WIT area working
groups.
The work that will be discussed this week in the HTTP WG (HTTPBIS) includes:
- Resumable uploads for HTTP
- Adding “grouping” to HTTP caches
- HTTP compression dictionaries
- “Unprompted” HTTP authentication that allows clients to authenticate, without
servers revealing that they expect authentication to clients that don’t have
credentials
There’s also discussion this week both in HTTP, QUIC, and a side meeting about
a proposal for running HTTP/3 on streams. Today, HTTP/3 runs on QUIC, and
HTTP/2 runs on TLS+TCP, but this is a proposal to run HTTP/3 over TLS+TCP as
well. If you’re interested in this discussion, please join the meetings!
You can find the full agenda here:

Thanks,
Tommy & Mark, HTTPBIS WG chairs
