What at least i, but maybe more thinking about this thread, do not
understand, is why this little piece of text could not have been
copied in full to the email, as it is not much longer than the
announcement of it.
I had read the PDF after the first one btw, and then i did not
understand why that text as such could not also have been posted,
and if as an email attachment as such, either.  Sorry.
And i do not mean PDF with the nice side picture, but as a plain
text email.  (And hey, i reference to the email in the email
archive would have been nice, i am not subscribed to these noisy
crypto IETF lists, but that thread i really would like to have
glanced over.  If there was one.)

Thank you very much.


P.S.: that OpenSSL really implemented QUIC as such directly is
really cool, especially for the occasional OpenSSL-based
programmer.  In the future likely even more than today.

P.P.S.: this email generating script is really bad.  It should
place Reply-To: and/or Mail-Followup-To:, then one would not have
to remove this noreply@xxxxxxxxxxx manually.  (In most normal
MUAs.)  (Ie, why let people send data that ends in /dev/null?)
