Another web convention that guarantees to accelerate web scanning has been affirmed.
The changeover to HTTP/2, when it happens, will be the first real upgrade to the standard in 15 years.
The Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG) has recognized the tradition, one of its senior people wrote in a blogpost on Wednesday.
The standard will now go ahead to be altered before being connected, Mark Nottingham included.
Its engineers accept the new standard will speak to an enormous venture forward in light of the fact that it will make pages stack speedier and enhance encryption.
Instead of trying to reinvent the protocol, he said that the group was seeking to make the new one compatible with the old.
"Making HTTP/2 succeed means that it has to work with the existing web. So this effort is about getting the HTTP we know on the wire in a better way," he wrote then.
British computer scientist Sir Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web in 1989
Hypertext transfer protocol - HTTP - is the means by which browsers communicate with servers to render pages.The new version, Mr Nottingham wrote, would make it easier to use the web's encryption technologies, encouraging more websites to do so.
'Not pixie dust' But he added that HTTP/2 was not "magic Web performance pixie dust".
Instead of improving webpage loading times by half, it was "more accurate to view the new protocol as removing some key impediments to performance", he wrote.
"Once browsers and servers learn how and when to take advantage of that, performance should start incrementally improving."
The protocol is based on a Google technology called SPDY, which has been used in recent years. Google will switch to HTTP/2 in its Chrome browser.
