All,
The Fundraising and Mobile teams have been scheming about how we can start
to use the capabilities of the Varnish cache in our respective extensions.
Mobile already does use ESI, but this would be extensions to it.
As I know multiple other parties have been thinking along the same lines,
I've taken the liberty of creating an RfC [1] to discuss the subject /
develop requirements / wishlists / gotchas. Ideally this will serve as a
method to start retiring Squid, moving the site to Varnish, and then being
able to separate the site chrome from site content. *evil laugh*
