Summary

  • Updates the imquic (Meetecho) entry to reflect that Lorenzo's relay now supports draft-17 and draft-16 only
  • Versions below draft-16 (draft-15, draft-14, draft-13, draft-12, draft-11) were dropped when draft-17 support was added

Context

@lminiero updated his online relay (lminiero.it:9000) to draft-17 in early March 2026. The significant protocol changes in draft-17 (new MoQ-specific varint encoding, streams model, parameters no longer TLV, GREASE, etc.) made it impractical to maintain backward compatibility below draft-16.

The interop target remains draft-16 — this just ensures the version matcher won't try to test old draft versions against imquic's relay when they're no longer supported.

Lorenzo updated his relay (lminiero.it:9000) to support draft-17 and
dropped all versions below draft-16 due to the significant protocol
changes in draft-17 (new varint encoding, streams model, parameters
format, GREASE, etc.).

Technically the support for v16/v17 is still only in a PR, but I'm planning to merge it soon, so thanks for updating the info before I had to 😄

I still have to prepare some Docker images to use here. Not sure if I'll have time this week (or the one after that, since I'll take some time off), but I'll definitely try to do it ASAP, using the existing folders as a reference.

Yeah, I went ahead an updated this since currently we only have the remote relay URL in the runner and it was running 16/17. It's always an option to split up an implementation into multiple entries like we've done with moq-rs and moq-rs-draft-16, too. Let me know if you want any help finishing/testing #57 I know the NOC is probably especially busy this IETF. 😅

Just a review to make sure I didn't make n00b mistakes would be helpful for now, thanks! 🙏 I'll try to get back to it when I can, it's indeed a hectic week 🤣
