LGTM. Is this going to be a node core fork? |
|
I don't think this will be a node core fork. My understanding was that this would house the mid and top tier apis, and @jasnell was working on the lowest level apis in node core now. So, this repo would house the http1/2/3 apis and whatever abstraction we build on top of that to make the compatibility story better. If anyone from the @nodejs/web-server-frameworks team disagrees with my understanding please chime in. |

According to https://github.com/nodejs/admin/blob/1ac8f19c14c22683c8f8271ca8f205a6580b3be6/GITHUB_ORG_MANAGEMENT_POLICY.md#repositories, this is effectively approved. Looking at the web-server-frameworks folks, I see at least four people that should be able to add the repo (Matteo, James, Michael, and Gireesh). Happy to do it if they'd prefer that for any reason, but probably best for one of them to just set it up. |

Repo created, https://github.com/nodejs/http-next. @Ethan-Arrowood can you push, licence, readme.md and code of conduct files before anything else goes in? |
|
Pushed! Let me know if anything needs to be changed |
|
I think this can be closed now? Re-open if I'm wrong, of course. |

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.

The NodeJS Web Server Framework Working Group requests a new repo in the NodeJS org titled http-next. We will be using this repo to develop a ground-up rewrite of the http core modules. This plan was discussed during the OpenJS World collaboration summit and continued during our routine working group meetings.
Here are some relevant issues for more information:
Reminder: requests like this are automatically approved after 72 hours. If you object to this new repo or would like to propose a different name please do so promptly so we can discuss. Thank you!
