<chair hat clearly off>

In September, I submitted draft-kucherawy-dispatch-zstd, which introduces a
new compression  mechanism and seeks to register media types and content
encodings for it.  The most obvious application for it is HTTP payloads,
but it has other possible applications.

I don't know of IETF venues other than this one and maybe the ART list
where this kind of thing might be discussed, or how we might dispatch it.
Offlist conversation with Mark Nottingham suggested maybe HTTPBIS might
like to at least discuss this, but I haven't looked to see if it fits
within their current charter.

Suggestions for discussion venues or processing options are welcome.
