Discussion in the HTTP working group has lead to some fairly substantial changes to the spec that we rely on. These are breaking changes. See the changes here: https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/pull/252 In short, several of the parameters that were in header fields are now in the body of the message and the Encryption header field is now gone. This completely messes with the use of that spec in Webpush. It's easy to detect which version is in use because the identifier has changed, and there are small gains to be had. The overall message size is now slightly smaller, and the key derivation is now slightly simpler. The specs also have fewer interdependencies as a result. I've put together a revision of the webpush-encryption draft. I've taken this opportunity to simplify things a little. You can see a preview in the editor's draft: https://webpush-wg.github.io/webpush-encryption/ I realize that this is a fairly big (and late) change. I remain optimistic that it will be the last. Feedback on the changes are positive so far [1]. I plan to submit this doc very soon, ahead of the draft submission deadline. I realize that's short notice, but I'm fully prepared to back out this change if necessary. --Martin [1] Costin suggested that we might also remove Crypto-Key. That is technically possible, though it's probably excessively kludgy, the DH key could be moved to the keyid field. I'm leery of that sort of optimization, but I'm willing to be convinced that this is a special enough case (I don't think that it is that special, but have at it).
