Hi I've submitted the below draft. Like the Binary Optimized Header Encoding draft (from which I have borrowed heavily), this is not meant to be published, but as an alternative to the proposed header encoding. I believe that a binary encoding can be more compact and have better security properties than compressing text labels. Yoav Begin forwarded message: From: "internet-drafts@ietf.org<mailto:internet-drafts@ietf.org>" <internet-drafts@ietf.org<mailto:internet-drafts@ietf.org>> Subject: New Version Notification for draft-nir-httpbis-che-00.txt Date: October 9, 2012 1:33:10 PM GMT+02:00 To: Yoav Nir <ynir@checkpoint.com<mailto:ynir@checkpoint.com>> A new version of I-D, draft-nir-httpbis-che-00.txt has been successfully submitted by Yoav Nir and posted to the IETF repository. Filename: draft-nir-httpbis-che Revision: 00 Title: HTTP/2.0 Discussion: Compact Header Encoding Creation date: 2012-10-09 WG ID: Individual Submission Number of pages: 9 URL: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-nir-httpbis-che-00.txt Status: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-nir-httpbis-che Htmlized: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-nir-httpbis-che-00 Abstract: This document proposes an alternative encoding for HTTP headers. This encoding is considerably more compact than the uncompressed textual encoding in HTTP/1.1 and current HTTP/2.0 draft.
