The version of Node.js WebPush server in master branch implements one of
the first drafts of WebPush protocol. It also has a PR [2] which plans to
support the same version of protocol as we are now. And they have an issue
[3] to support ALPN. In this case we can tag our current state and go
further just with ALPN.

So, I add +1 to:
