That said, you're all lucky that the rest of us developers
have no idea when the current round of specification flux
will settle down.

Security vulnerabilities will always trump the specs. Thanks for keeping on top of things.

That said, I don't think the intent should be to support any old versions for any protracted amount of time. -00 has security vulnerabilities brought up by people on webkit-dev@ so from the Chrome side, we intend not to support -00 at all once we have -09 support available. All the makers of server-side code have already published versions compatibile with the latest draft, and IETF drafts are intended to expire after a fixed amount of time (-00 is already well past its expiration date).

    It does.
