Websocket draft-ietf-hybi-thewebsocketprotocol-10

[Vibul Imtarnasan]

OK Trustin,

I'll give it a go over the next 2-3 weeks (my day job is getting a bit
busy).

I'm not sure how this fits into your release time frames but if anyone else
can do it sooner, let me know.  Don't want to unnecessarily double up
effort.

Thanks

Regards
Vibul
