Ok, there you have a proposal: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ibc-websocket-dns-srv-02 :) Of course, the core WS spec should reference and *mandate* it, or maybe not and instead a W3C specification should mandate it for webbrowsers. And in this case, the WS URI resolution section in core WS spec (DNS A stuff) should be entirely removed. -- Iñaki Baz Castillo <ibc@xxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
