Hello I also think HTTP/2 could be useful in APT

Here is my regular "apt update" output: ~# apt update [skip] Get:32 https://cloudfront.debian.net/debian experimental InRelease [107 kB] Get:33 https://cloudfront.debian.net/debian stretch/contrib Sources.diff/Index [27.8 kB] Get:34 https://cloudfront.debian.net/debian stretch/main Sources.diff/Index [27.9 kB] Get:35 https://cloudfront.debian.net/debian stretch/non-free Sources.diff/Index [27.8 kB] Get:36 https://cloudfront.debian.net/debian stretch/main amd64 Packages.diff/Index [27.9 kB] Get:37 https://cloudfront.debian.net/debian stretch/main i386 Packages.diff/Index [27.9 kB] [skip ~170 lines of similar sized files] Get:203 https://cloudfront.debian.net/debian unstable/contrib DEP-11 128x128 Icons [310 kB] Fetched 56.1 MB in 45s (1,225 kB/s) I skipped about 170 lines of small, less than 50K files, they all could be downloaded in parallel, instead of sequential order. And I am downloading from HTTP/2 capable mirror (AWS CloudFront). Unfortunately I'm not a developer, but let me know if I can help with anything. Rehards Tim
