The beauty of Tony's suggestion is that it defines no channel... it only
defines that the channel used is not the current HTTP connection.
* (maybe this is something that you specify in your 'GET' request
* if you're willing to accept them, and something that comes
* back in the header if there's a place to recieve them)
Exactly.
* 2) What is the nature of the progress report:
* percentage complete
* amount of time remaining
* X out of Y as Strata Rose indicated
Again, Tony's proposal allows any of these (and the ones people come up with
years from now) to be integrated easily.
* I think we can manage to support all combinations of these,
* optionally, in the protocol, and then see what actually gets
* implemented and supported.
*/
Exactly.
