I'm putting together a draft, incorporating many of the ideas and  
thoughts I've read here. However, it is more in style to my Reverse  
HTTP draft[1], than WebSockets. It will incorporate HTTP message  
semantics, bidirectionally, synchronicity, request/response and event  
support. I think it will do all that without being significantly more  
complex than HTTP, and do so by making use of the bulk of the HTTP spec.

Give me about a week or so....
