This is from the section 3.3.1 of SPDY Protocol - Draft 2 [0]:

"When a server receives a non-SPDY request which could have been served via SPDY, it should append a Alternate-Protocol header into the response stream. Note that it is valid to have multiple Alternate-Protocols headers. The field-value can also be specified as a comma-separated list, as per RFC2616 section 4.2."

Thanks for the link; I'm curious as to the downsides however (the article linked in the article doesn't fully cover them), and a Google search doesn't yield anything concrete (i.e. deferred on vs. off).
