A bit to soon to start announcing the project. But I like the initiative hope the project manages to improve stuff.

Mozilla tends to announce projects when they begin so people can contribute to them right away. I think that's a good thing and that's one of the reasons I work for Mozilla.

By the way, I think this is an awesome effort by Josh and the others working on this. I work mainly in security and networking, and I'm excited about anything we can do to make end-to-end communication more efficient because these kinds of improvements help enable more use of HTTPS and help reduce (hopefully eliminate) the need for content transforming proxies.

We would like to develop in the open, and hopefully with community participation.

BTW, please fix your lossy test methodology for when you do your tests on a future version of this.

https://blog.mozilla.org/research/2013/10/17/studying-lossy-... was rather flawed and you never acknowledged this.

(see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6581827 - only one of the four sets of test results might have been valid)
