RE: plan for SPDY support in libsoup

[전태수 <steve jun samsung com>]

One of major obstacles is TLS layer in libsoup.
Well, while the current libsoup supports gnutls, gnutls doesn't implement NPN, which is essential for SPDY.
some SPDY implementation relies on openssl for NPN, but libsoup would be hard to use openssl due to license conflict.
Then, I came across the NSS project from Mozilla and it implements NPN now.
While I have searched the libsoup history, you, Dan, wrote in the mail-loop some time before that soup supported NSS but removed.
Can we take NSS again for NPN implementation?

Thanks,
Taesoo / Steve.
