DO NOT REPLY [Bug 47485] HTML5 Websocket implementation

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=47485

--- Comment #14 from Yannick <yl...@laposte.net> 2011-10-07 09:46:27 UTC ---

You can find 2 modules on Internet that add websocket protocol support in
Apache.

The first is : PyWebSocket 
at http://code.google.com/p/pywebsocket/
but it use Python for the source code.
I don't like to use Python on my production servers.
I think that it is licensed under BSD licence
(http://code.google.com/p/pywebsocket/source/browse/trunk/src/COPYING) when I
look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BSD_licenses


The secondth is : Apache WebSocket module 
at https://github.com/disconnect/apache-websocket.
It use language C for the source code.
It is licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0
(https://github.com/disconnect/apache-websocket/blob/master/LICENSE)
Today, October 07, 2011, this source code implemented the latest support for
WebSocket protocol 13 (August 31, 2011 /
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-hybi-thewebsocketprotocol-13).

The latest IETF draft for websocket protocol is available at
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-hybi-thewebsocketprotocol/

Is it possible to add Apache WebSocket module (apache-websocket) in the
official Apache HTTPD 2.3 source code ? 
And if possible in Apache HTTPD 2.2.x ?

I think that now, it is the best candidate to add websocket protocol support in
Apache HTTPD.
