New Lab project: Ice for WebSocket

Rennes, France
We are pleased to announce the new Ice for WebSocket lab project. Ice for WebSocket is a transport plug-in that implements the WebSocket protocol to enable Ice clients and servers to communicate via a reverse proxy or web server.
The main advantage of this plug-in is that it allows an Ice client to connect using the standard HTTP port (80), which avoids many of the administrative issues typically associated with connections to non-standard ports. Regular web server traffic can continue to use port 80 simultaneously with WebSocket applications.
You can read more about it on the project page, or you can get started right away by downloading the IceWS distribution.
