Eh. Is that really the case? Isn't HTTP2 like 95% SPDY? It's like Daala becoming IETF's NETVC and then saying the Daala attempt failed.

Also, QUIC as far as I know is still in R&D mode and I think it's meant to be more complementary to HTTP2 no? So I don't know about it "failing" yet.

Ah, you are right. I mean SPDY is/was by design an experimental tech. By a adoption point of view is a failure by design.

But is good as it is: innovation break things and we need experimental protocols.

For QUIC instead I don't think there is a future.
