(Get the code!)
<email address hidden>: lgpl code isn't acceptable for mozilla, please don't suggest it.
<email address hidden>: if you're really interested, i'd suggest you try doing it, build mozilla, hop on irc and ask for help. offering sample code isn't ilkely to get this very far.
personally, this whole thing seems very annoying. i don't feel like reading the rfc, but i would like a basic specification that explains what to do when:
1. there's no SRV record
2. there are 20 alternates in the SRV record and all of them are bad.
3. general cases in between.
The spec should list the series of requests (dns, http, other) as well as wait points and expected time spent at each step. the cost (size) of each inbound and outbound request should be listed, and a comparisoon should be made against today's browsing behaviors.
the following browsing behaviors are available today:
1. host doesn't respond, user tries a different link to a different server
2. user tries google cache for link
3. user tries coral cache for link
