Hi, I'd like to start a lab related to the websocket api and the websocket protocol. It will initially contain an implementation of a Java websocket client. The aim is to provide multiple versions according to each of the latest IETF drafts offering compliance with existing server implementations. Also, there is a similar Jira opened in HttpComponents [1].
If it proves to be a useful project and gets promoted to incubator or as a subproject, adding server implementations and multiple language support would be the next steps in the development of this project. It would enable Apache projects to have a faster adoption of websockets if desired as well as providing proof of concept implementations and giving feedback to the IETF working group. I'd like to start Monsoon in the Apache Labs in order to be able to experiment and explore what a websocket implementation implies.
