"RHTTP and overview of other approaches" at IETF apparea meeting (HTTPSubstrate ISSUE-16)

I'm in the IETF apparea meeting, enjoying these presentations
on BOSH, Bayeaux, WebSock, rHTTP,

10:00   Bidirectional HTTP: BOSH, Bayeux, COMET, WebSockets, rHTTP
                 Peter Saint-André, Salvatore Loreto, Greg Wilkins, 
and/or Mark Lentczner?
                 http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0124.html
                 http://svn.cometd.org/trunk/bayeux/bayeux.html
                 draft-hixie-thewebsocketprotocol-02.txt
                 draft-lentczner-rhttp-00
http://tools.ietf.org/agenda/74/apparea.html

I can't seem to find a pointer to this nice summary by Mark L.

mnot brought up BCP56...

peter <at> jabber.org: "On the use of HTTP as a Substrate"
peter <at> jabber.org: http://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp56
  -- http://jabber.ietf.org/logs/apparea/2009-03-23.txt

which reminds me of TAG ISSUE-16 HTTPSubstrate-16, which
we recently estimated is all over but the crying, i.e. PENDINGREVIEW

   Should HTTP be used as a substrate protocol? Does W3C agree with RFC 
3205?
   http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/group/track/issues/16

people are talking about a new mailing list... BOF deadlines... etc.

Re: "RHTTP and overview of other approaches" at IETF apparea meeting (HTTPSubstrate ISSUE-16)

I looked briefly into bosh and I wasn't sure why their reason for
tunnelling GET/POST etc. over HTTP POST was so much more palatable to
web arch than WS-*s usage.  My guess is they have similar reasons to
the WS-* community, that they wanted a uniform layer of GET/POST to be
able to work bi-directionally without limitations of HTTP on each
message, such as non-addressable receivers.

Cheers,
Dave

IDNAbis session 1 at IETF 74: mechanism/policy, looking for test materials

Vint Cerf chaired the session and revewed status/goals.
The current work ("bis") is called the 2008 design, as opposed
to the 2003 design. The 2008 design aims
to be Unicode version independent, for example.
There was also an interesting presentation on CJK details.
The presentation materials are (to appear?) in the IDNAbis
section of the IETF 74 meeting materials
https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/74/materials.html#wg-idnabis

I'll excerpt a bit from the jabber chat logs that
illustrate some points I picked up...
   http://jabber.ietf.org/logs/idnabis/2009-03-24.txt

I (re-)learned about the mechanism/policy divide:

[01:29:42] <dan.hoopyfrood> (I'm struggling to appreciate the aversion 
to policy issues in this design space. the security/policy issues seem, 
to me, to dominate. If policy is Somebody Else's Problem, is it clear 
who Somebody Else is?)
[01:29:55] <Andrew Sullivan> Dan: yes
[01:30:00] <Andrew Sullivan> the zone operator(s)
[01:30:03] <Andrew Sullivan> and maybe ICANN
[01:30:54] <dan.hoopyfrood> remind me who the .com and .cn zone 
operators are? (if you have bandwidth)
[01:31:19] <Andrew Sullivan> .com's zone operator is Verisign, and .cn's 
is CNNIC
[01:31:35] <dan.hoopyfrood> thanks
[01:31:41] <Andrew Sullivan> and the zone operator of crankycanuck.ca is me
[01:32:12] <Andrew Sullivan> (Note that lower-level zones are also 
important in this dicsussion -- important not to ignore that)

And I got discouraging signals about the state of testing:


[01:02:41] <dan.hoopyfrood> is anybody maintaining an IDNAbis test suite?

[01:10:03] <dan.hoopyfrood> (searching for IDNA test materials yields something from 2005. http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/draft-josefsson-idn-test-vectors.html )
[01:10:14] <dan.hoopyfrood> (oops; rather: from 2003)
[01:10:58] <klensin> There is lots of stuff for the 2003 version... and some issues about what "test suite" means.  Can supply later -- too distracting to try to do while following the discussion

[01:15:11] <dan.hoopyfrood> (I see various perl/python library test materials, including, from Feb 2008, http://testers.cpan.org/show/IDNA-Punycode.html )

[01:38:18] <dan.hoopyfrood> indeed, that is counter-intuitive that Bucher != bucher (where the u's have umlauts)
[01:39:09] <dan.hoopyfrood> this is *exactly* the sort of question that test suites are ideal for. I wish I could get the IETF to do more test suites. (I tried to convince CALSIFY to do a test suite, without success, a few years ago)


p.s. dan.hoopyfrood is a name that I didn't really intend for
permanent records, but I haven't figured out how to get my
jabber client (iChat) to call me something else.

That wiki topic now has notes from the meeting, mostly
thanks to Sam Ruby.

Re: W3C/IETF HTML 5 get-together ~25 March

Thanks Sam and Dan!

 From the notes, I can't quite tell whether Origin and CORS got  
discussed together or separately.  That doesn't really match reality,  
as there's (at least in the view of some) value to using the same  
header for CORS and more general cross site request forgery  
prevention.  That aspect is, in my view, an important element in the  
cost/benefit analysis for Origin.

Concerning "JavaScript sandboxing", I wonder what precisely people at  
the meeting had in mind.  Is this another instance of the topic area  
of last December's workshop

   http://www.w3.org/2008/security-ws/

... or is something different meant?

"Discussing them separately ignores an important motivation for  
Origin" is what I mean -- sorry for the unclear words.

They were discussed separately.  As you point out, that may have been 
unfortunate.  I was unaware of the connection between the two.

That was mentioned in passing, simply as an area where additional 
security review may be warranted.  It wasn't elaborated further.
