Kidding aside, I'd love to work on a GoT I-D and shoot for an RFC.

Related notes:
- I gave a talk about Gopher over TLS (and HTTPS) recently. Recording:

- Also experimented with TLS forking based on ALPN & SNI. This "TLS Router"
tool should help Gopher servers transparently support GoT. YMMV.

- Trying to get web browser support for `gopher:` scheme links. Need to add
it to the WHATWG HTML specification. Some interest was expressed by
Mozillians; does anyone have Chromium contacts?
