Hi everybody,
For this new year, I have 2 little suggestions for the new protocol. It should
be interested to have a protocol which can be encapsulated in HTTP protocol.
* Some users have a net connection at work (who does not have one ?
:) ) but
they must go through a web proxy (apache, ...) to reach the net (like
me@work) and most of the time, on these proxies, the command CONNECT is
disabled, only GET and PUT are usable. It is interesting to reach such users
because they may have big network connections (companies have money to pay
big one
:) ) and most of the time, this type of connection is less loaded
during night (local time).
[Note: I have tested this at work with bittorrent and it is far better than my
home connection
;) ]
* Another suggestion linked to the previous one. Why not using HTTP protocol
as user-to-user protocol ? it provides everything we need and can go through
all proxies. Perhaps we can only use a subset of HTTP protocol because there
is things we don't need.
