Marginally so... there is a lot of web apps that handle low-latency, interactive streaming in a variety of situations, and they don't need WS for that. WS is slightly more convenient where supported, indeed, but it doesn't really enable anything that wasn't perfectly possible (and done) before. /mz _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
