 |

Hey guys,
Does anybody know when Apache httpd will have support for HTTP/3?
I know HTTP/3 is not completely out yet, but it would be nice to know.
Thanks. |

At least the first step to achieve this can be done, I just compiled httpd-2.4.54 using openssl-3.0.5+quic on a Fedora 36 VM, so if that can be done it's the first step to create a mod_http3 with the other core modules.
Also while doing that, nghttp2 said it also supports http3.
I just hope somebody starts working on this soon, I was trying nginx-quic and it sucks, I rather using Apache httpd. |

| I wish I had the knowledge to do so, but I don't, so I better leave it to the experts. |

To stay on the subject nghttp3 is available to use without OpenSSL+Quic, using the QPACK instead.
More info here: https://nghttp2.org/nghttp3/
I just hope somebody takes the lead and start working on it so we can have it available. |

Another setback for HTTP3, this is from OpenSSL when I asked them when openssl was going to have support for quic:
| Quote: | | Initial QUIC support will be available in OpenSSL 3.2. However this support is planned to be limited (client side only, single stream only) - not really useable for http3. 3.3 is likely to have more extensive support. 3.2 will be out some time later this year. No timeline for 3.3 yet. |

| Is there any update on this. Why do i get the QUIC support on nginx, litespeed, caddy, azure and aws resources already but not for apache. Is there a roadmap? |

HTTP 3.0 first draft was published in 2020. It is the proposed successor to HTTP 2.0. It uses QUIC instead of TCP for the underlying transport protocol, thus removing HOL blocking in the transport layer. QUIC is based on UDP.
httpd Apache so far uses only TCP. |
