I find it really strange that there are no browsers that currently
implement Websocket.   It's been around for a while now and I've
frequently asked if there is a browser that supports it - even
a branch of one of the OS browsers.

So far I've drawn a blank... and because the browsers are not
implementing it, I've felt no great need to add it to my
Jetty server.

So there are some browser builders on this list - can any
of them volunteer why there has been no experimentation with
websocket?

Anybody know why the websocket designers have not tested their
proposal with an extension to firefox or similar?


cheers
