1. Introduction

Existing RFCs define extensions to HTTP/2 [HTTP/2] that remain useful in HTTP/3. Appendix A.2 of [HTTP/3] describes the required updates for HTTP/2 frames to be used with HTTP/3.

[ORIGIN] defines the HTTP/2 ORIGIN frame, which indicates what origins are available on a given connection. It defines a single HTTP/2 frame type.
