PUSH_PROMISE exists because we need to indicate to the browser all of the information it needs to make a determination about whether or not it wants the stream (and to short circuit the inlining/push mechanism when it already has what it needs!) -=R On Fri, Jun 28, 2013 at 10:34 PM, Roberto Peon <grmocg@gmail.com> wrote: > Any content negotiation would be an appropriate example. :) > > You don't want to have to wait for the HEADERS frame to indicate to the > client which resource it might already have (it should have the opportunity > to RST_STREAM if it has it in cache, for instance). > -=R > > > On Fri, Jun 28, 2013 at 10:25 PM, James M Snell <jasnell@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Have an example handy? >> >> Here's an example that shows that response headers in the PUSH_PROMISE >> would not be necessary...
