The IESG has received a request from the Hypertext Transfer Protocol WG (httpbis) to consider the following document: - 'HTTP Random Access and Live Content' <draft-ietf-httpbis-rand-access-live-03.txt> as Experimental RFC
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2018-10-12. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract To accommodate byte range requests for content that has data appended over time, this document defines semantics that allow a HTTP client and server to perform byte-range GET and HEAD requests that start at an arbitrary byte offset within the representation and ends at an indeterminate offset. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-httpbis-rand-access-live/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-httpbis-rand-access-live/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
