And for context, Cloudflare is using a fork of my open source library (kixelated/moq) that I've been working on for a few years, plus I authored the original MoQ drafts. I know my post might look derivative at first glance... but it's the other way around.
Also, putting it out here, we're building on a _lot_ of kixelated's work with what we've deployed, so he really deserves a lot of credit.
