This post announces the adoption of the "Extensible Prioritization Scheme for HTTP" by the IETF HTTP Working Group, a new approach to HTTP prioritization. It details the limitations of HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 prioritization, introduces the new scheme which uses absolute weighting via an HTTP header instead of dependencies, and highlights Cloudflare's role in its development and co-editorship. This represents a significant step in standardizing more effective HTTP prioritization for better web performance.
