Summary

• SPDY is a transport protocol designed as a successor to HTTP as part of Google's "Let's make the web faster" initiative.
• A SPDY implementation will wrap the existing HTTP implementation as a sort of in-browser proxy. This preserves all of the existing HTTP semantics and tools (e.g. firebug), while leveraging the on-the-wire benefits of SPDY.
• This feature is targeted for Mozilla 11.
