  Didn’t Google call one of their HTTP extensions SPDY? Or am I thinking of something else?

    > Didn’t Google call one of their HTTP extensions SPDY? Or am I thinking of something else? SPDY was the experiment that became HTTP/2, yes.

    Yes, Google's binary replacement for HTTP when run over TLS was named SPDY and is ultimately the origin of the HTTP/2 standard Their encrypted replacement for TCP was named QUIC and is now being worked up for a standard also to be named QUIC (people working in this space call Google's GQUIC). The IETF's standard QUIC is firming up and may be finished in 2019 or so, but then I expected TLS 1.3 in 2016 so what do I know.

    SPDY was a good 4-letter acronym.
