Hi there, we have just submitted the following draft:"Best Practices for the Use of Long Polling and Streaming in Bidirectional HTTP"
The draft is a first tentative to describe what does it means to use HTTP for Bidirectional communication and how to better use HTTP, as it exists today, to enable such "bidirectional HTTP" using "long polling"
and "HTTP streaming" mechanisms. until it will appear on the IETF website you can find it here: http://xmpp.org/internet-drafts/draft-loreto-http-bidirectional-00.txtwe are looking forward to receive your comments, suggestions and feedbacks on it
we would like to remind that the preferred venue for discussion of this document is the hybi at ietf.org mailing list (visit <https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/hybi> for further information).

Filename: draft-loreto-http-bidirectional Revision: 00 Title: Best Practices for the Use of Long Polling and Streaming in Bidirectional HTTP Creation_date: 2009-06-11 WG ID: Independent Submission Number_of_pages: 16 Abstract: There is widespread interest in using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) to enable asynchronous or server-initiated communication from a server to a client as well as from a client to a server.
