Gosh I really ought to pepper more smiley faces all around (:-).
This topic has been beaten about sufficiently in this group.
I just lobbed it in as a wisecrack at the end of a message on an entirely
different topic.

Just for the record, UDP would work VERY well for HTTP-like protocols. However,
it's obviously a moot point to discuss it when so many servers and browsers
use TCP (and some browsers don't go through lib-www so it would be non-trivial
to switch). New protocols should, however, look into UDP.

I would be happy to engage in religious UDP vs. TCP discussions
off www-talk. (:-) There's enough traffic here already.

Cheers,
R.
