[webkit-dev] HTML5 Web Socket Design Doc

[Ojan Vafai]

You had mentioned that there were a couple people at Apple the
intended to start working on WebSockets soonish, is that still the
plan? If so, who should be CCed on the appropriate bugs?

Ukai-san, I think the next step here it to file a bug at
bugs.webkit.org and to start sending patches.

I'm not authority here, but you should try to get this up in pieces
instead of getting the whole thing working on your end and then trying
to get that all reviewed in one big chunk. Put it behind an
ENABLE_WEBSOCKETS define so that it can be buggy (or even not compile)
as you get the various bits in.

Two patches that are easily separable:
1. The patch adding the ENABLE_WEBSOCKETS define
2. The patch adding DumpRenderTree support for testing websockets
(along with whatever server component it will need)

Anyone else on this list, feel free to chime in if I'm giving the
wrong advice here. :)
