SPDY = IE? — Thu, 24 May 2012 16:20:44 GMT

Will SPDY interfere with the speed of IE or will it help?

The proposal can be read and downloaded from here: tools.ietf.org/.../draft-montenegro-httpbis-speed-mobility-01.

It is important to note that HTTP Speed+Mobility builds on the best parts of SPDY, but also stresses compatibility with existing standards and the needs of small and mobile internet connected devices, specifically battery life in mobile devices.

@testman, we are definitively planning to provide an early implementation of the specification on the HTML5 Labs site (html5labs.interoperabilitybridges.com), stay tuned.

FremyCompany: it seems the spec is available on the ietf.org website there: tools.ietf.org/.../draft-montenegro-httpbis-speed-mobility-00

Do you have already an SPDY+ (aka S&M) implementation for IE or IIS ?

Chrome is running SPDY & Firefox is on the way, having the feature already on IE will show that IE is still proposing a premium customer experience.

By the way, please change S&M because it is are really bad name, unless you like bad jokes ;-)

I'm very interested in this initiative. I'd like to see a technical in-depth post explaining where SPDY falls short and how Speed+Mobility addresses that. Also, I'm curious if there were attempts to collaborate with SPDY authors prior to pushing this initiative. If the goal is to make the Web faster, no one disagrees. Let's pool talent and make it happen.

Could you please have some other developer maintain this page? The one who designed it seems to think 0.86em sans-serif gray on white is readable.

Any place where we can download the spec?

And where is the actual proposal. I want to read it.

Is there any kind of comparison between your proposal and SPDY?
