for the approval announcement and

for Mark’s and Barry’s blog article.

I believe this is a big milestone for web technology, and I wanted to thank everyone who has been involved in this effort. It has been very important work, and I am so glad to see such a good end result. Also, I wanted to highlight the importance of code in developments like this, to understand what we could do, to build confidence that the specifications work, and, of course, to employ the results. I think the future is very bright for HTTP/2.

Thanks,

Jari Arkko
