Although I agree a udp based proposal is unlikely to bear fruit, I don't
see that it is a priori beyond the scope of the HTTP/2 work. I think our
charter asks for proposals that reduce TCP connection count - that would
certainly qualify :) WebRTC is doing something kind of similar with
sctp/dtls/udp layering, right?
There are a huge amount of unknowns there, which is a terrific argument
for rallying around spdy because it is well experimented with already
and is known to solve some hard problems. But if someone were to invest
in a prototype, a spec, and some test results of a udp system I would
find that a much more interesting thing to consider than another
proposal for some variation of spdy-lite.
My weak understanding of dtls is that it has the potential to save
another rtt over the tcp version :)
