An editor has claimed that I have a conflict of interest in this page. Please see my statement here User_talk:Oberstet#Conflict_of_Interest_on_WebSockets_comparison. —Preceding undated comment added 14:49, 21 September 2011 (UTC).[reply]

With regard to the other objections raised, please see my comment on the objecting editor's talk page User_talk:AlistairMcMillan#WebSocket.

Since the changes to the websocket protocol versions 8-13, the HLL Websocket Server is one of the few (maybe the only for a while) with an actual live demonstration using the updated protocol, which has now been submitted to become the actual standard. There are very few experts on websockets at this point. It's new technology, and unlike movies, there's not a lot of people out there to review.

Further, above editor has removed the following list of implementations, first from the WebSocket page, because it would be "an invitation to spam" and violates the WP:LINKFARM policy. Then, after I moved the list to this page - adding the comment that they should be included into the comparison page over time - above editor removed it also from this page, pointing to Wikipedia:NOT.

I disagree:

the mere links to WS implementations is already useful information to i.e. developers wanting to learn/deploy WS
having the list at least temporary on this page, to encourage people to do further work and include it into the comparison table with detailed feature-wise information is even more useful
denying Wikipedia user information by blindly following "policies" to the letter is not helpful

Further I assume that it is not vandalism or the like to include the deleted list now at least on this talk page for users to discuss.

Should you happen to know the details for one of those implementations, please consider including it into the comparison table.

The main page just has a particular type of "notable" websocket implementation, however there are many other uses for it, for example in Embedded world to provide realtime UI in browser. I am the author of libwebsockets, like the other deleted ones here it's certainly going to be of interest to certain people looking for lightweight, embedded websockets and not, as the page currently has, just browsers and big iron solutions. Maybe it means there should be another table or another page? Warmcat1 (talk) 10:07, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The information here is pretty old. Especially for Firefox I see Firefox 8... We are Firefox 13 guys... At least a flags should be set to inform the reader that this is NOT anymore a page "to make choices" because it is obsolete. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.19.84.15 (talk) 21:49, 12 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
