Stefan Tilkov talks to Mark Nottingham, chair of the IETF
(Internet Engineering Task Force) HTTP Working Group and Internet
standards veteran, about HTTP/2, the new version of the Web's
core protocol. The discussion provides a glimpse behind the
process of building standards. Topics covered include the history
of HTTP versions, differences among those versions, and the
relation of HTTP/2 to Google's SPDY open networking protocol.
Mark goes into detail about HTTP/2's technical features,
including binary framing, improved connection handling, server
push, and the different protocol negotiation approaches. The
episode concludes with a look at the consequences of HTTP/2
availability and adoption, especially regarding the various hacks
that are best practices with HTTP/1.1.
