HTTP2: Are we there yet?

Hi, I've been looking for developments in the rack framework concerning its 
update towards great big http2. I've seen the presentation from Aaron 
Patterson from October/November, and since then, only seen the events 
middleware landing in master. And there's an alpha 2.0 version. 

I assume that http2 won't come with 2.0 . Still, I'd like to know where we 
stand, what's missing for rack to develop further in that direction and 
where could I help/contribute. Hopefully there's a document someone can 
redirect me to. 

I'm really looking forward to hearing from someone, possibly Mr. Patterson, 
who's clearly been working in this. I think ruby needs http2 badly. I think 
that all other standards for pushing 
server-to-client/full-duplex/pipe-in-my-json will die after widespread 
adoption, like image spriting and all those HTTP1 performance 
"enhancements". I think that the ruby frameworks don't need and should not 
enforce websockets, specially for thing it was not designed for. I think 
ActionCable is crap. And just as Rails, I am entitled to an opinion, and 
would like to try to force it into people's throats. And I'd like to force 
http2 and consider myself a better human being after that.

Only thing I found was 
this: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/rack-devel/lipvWVZrcfo and 
after the author left the project. What's the status?

Really appreciate any feedback,
Tiago
