Hello all,
A stream status code has been mentioned on this list before, and I'd like to
bring it up again. Streams have begun appearing on Gemini, notably on
gemini://chat.mozz.us. But at the same time, responsible clients have been
adding timeouts for server responses. It is even part of the Egsam test, under
section 1.1: gemini://egsam.pitr.ca/1.1.gmi.
The best solution that I see, as I believe that streams can be very useful and
interesting, is to add a SUCCESS AS STREAM status code. I propose status code 21.
Thoughts? I know Solderpunk has said that there won't be non-trivial changes to
spec from now on, but I hope he will see this as an important exception.
Thank you,
makeworld
