Nginx First Alpha Patch for Nginx HTTP/2 support

yup already updated centminmod.com and sslspdy.com with Nginx HTTP/2 ver 4 patch

from Nginx HTTP/2 protocol to succeed Google SPDY

 

Oh thought your older browser visitors would have trouble with HTTP/2 ?

 

Oh I see.. similar to what I do on centminmod.com itself, https side is open separately for testing

 

Let us know how that goes

yeah they've publicly stated such.. unlike CDN77 who deployed the Nginx HTTP/2 alpha patches in live production heh

sweet

 

Yeah saw that info - great news. Though for 123.08stable, even with Nginx 1.9.5 and HTTP/2 supported it will still default to SPDY and wouldn't have the variables and routines for HTTP/2 right now. Only 123.09beta01 will have HTTP/2 variables and routines right now.

 

still other beta grade changes in 123.09beta01 that need testing and feedback

most likely will backport HTTP/2 variables and routine into 123.08stable
