Role: moq-transport document editor; active interop tester and relay-conformance bug-finder
Contributions
- moq-transport editor — carries editorial and design work on the core transport draft. Opened issue #1897 “FETCH doesn’t need an End Location or End of Track” (Sep-2 2026), a FETCH-range simplification surfaced by hackathon testing; and earlier issue #1860 on atomic subscription bundles.
- moqtail contributor — landed FETCH-priority test tooling and the relay’s upstream FETCH-on-cache-miss capability (the
[1/n]–[3/n]PR series, #186–#188, completed in #193). - Interop bug-finder (Sep-2 2026 hackathon) — testing clients against moqtail’s live
relay18.moqtail.dev, root-caused a string of relay bugs that Zafer Gürel fixed live: a concurrent-PUBLISH track-record race (check-then-inserthas_track/add_track, one record overwriting the other), a DUPLICATE_SUBSCRIPTION wrongly returned after a cancelled subscription, REQUEST_ERROR sent on the control stream instead of the request’s own bidi stream, REQUEST_UPDATE ignored for PUBLISH (a FORWARD change not applied), and a FIN-instead-of-reset on a mid-subgroup upstream reset.
