[IPython-dev] SockJS

[Jason Grout]

Have you guys thought about using the SockJS library to implement the 
websockets?  It falls back to older methods if the browser doesn't 
support Websockets, and is designed as a drop-in replacement for 
websocket objects.  There is a tornado-sockjs package as well.

Here are some relevant links:
