I agree that this should be done, though I would prefer not to wait until
December to start work on a definitive HTTP/1.0 spec. I volunteer to help
write the charter.

Let me just add that it is important that we also (first or in parallel)
document HTTP/1.0 as it exists in current practice.
I agree also. I beleive this is the only path we can take as a loosely

just the first few to get to market!
I will donate whatever time I can to help out.
