Can someone comment on SSL versus S-http (implementation schedules not
religous debates over which is best) ? Is the intention to have
secure browsers support both protocols or is this going to divide the user
community based on what browsers they have ? What is the status on
implementation of WWW servers using s-http vs SSL ? Is there any
intention on making these available free for non-commerical use ?
What's available now ! What browsers support what ! Is there any FAQ someone
on this topic ?
Please enlighten me !
Thanks in advance.
