Greg, I agree with all your points about your proposal, except the one below : On Thu, Sep 23, 2010 at 12:06:14PM -0700, Greg Wilkins wrote: > Thus I think the ping/pong proposal is as least as good as the current > handshake in this regards. Since the client does not expect a response, it can't know whether the intermediaries are blocking or not, which means it might be trying to send large amounts of data before detecting that they're blocked. And some intermediaries will definitely block. But I think that with adding a few headers in the response (CL:0 + Conn: close), we should be able prevent such intermediaries from sending the server's ping to the client and trick them into closing first, which might do the trick. However, I find the principle of not sending anything until the server speaks WS a good idea because it protects against cross-proto attacks after the handshake. The inital part being HTTP, it performs no better and no worse than HTTP. So if we're going to make the handshake look like this, then our efforts must go towards ensuring that intermediaries that are not able to forward the client's poing won't forward the server's ping first. Last point, if we do that, we must keep in mind that it should not be directly reused for non-HTTP handshake openings. It's important for firewalls, IDS, proxies, etc... to see what protocol the client speaks before forwarding to the server, so it will have to be advertised first. Regards, Willy
