This is terrific news. Now if only Apache would start bundling spdy with their new releases, instead of expecting admins to hunt down the right mod (http://code.google.com/p/mod-spdy/) and hopefully remember to always keep both up to date.
That's fantastic news re nginx! The last I heard was that they were evaluating it and it's good that they are now committing to deliver support for SPDY.
Is Apache mod-spdy useful yet? The project page says "still an early beta and is not yet suitable for production environments" and everything I've read elsewhere says it's not ready. But things have a way of moving fast, is that outdated info?
At least nginx is going to start including it: https://twitter.com/#!/nginxorg/status/150112670966747137
