Re: [hybi] SPDY protocol from google frame

["Martin J. Dürst" <duerst at it.aoyama.ac.jp>]

It's not only "look at", it's also occasionally "just type it in". 
HTTP/1.0 is one line minimum, HTTP/1.1 is two lines minimum.

Another aspect is teaching: It's so much easier to teach a text-based 
protocol than a binary protocol, because there is much less of a 
difference between what you show and what's actually going on.

Regards,    Martin.
