|

Hey guys,
Does anybody know when Apache httpd will have support for HTTP/3?
I know HTTP/3 is not completely out yet, but it would be nice to know.
Thanks. |

At least the first step to achieve this can be done, I just compiled httpd-2.4.54 using openssl-3.0.5+quic on a Fedora 36 VM, so if that can be done it's the first step to create a mod_http3 with the other core modules.
Also while doing that, nghttp2 said it also supports http3.
I just hope somebody starts working on this soon, I was trying nginx-quic and it sucks, I rather using Apache httpd. |

I wish I had the knowledge to do so, but I don't, so I better leave it to the experts. |

To stay on the subject nghttp3 is available to use without OpenSSL+Quic, using the QPACK instead.
More info here: https://nghttp2.org/nghttp3/
I just hope somebody takes the lead and start working on it so we can have it available. |

Another setback for HTTP3, this is from OpenSSL when I asked them when openssl was going to have support for quic:
Quote: | Initial QUIC support will be available in OpenSSL 3.2. However this support is planned to be limited (client side only, single stream only) - not really useable for http3. 3.3 is likely to have more extensive support. 3.2 will be out some time later this year. No timeline for 3.3 yet. |
