Having trouble reconciling these statements. I sympathize with the position that the pros outweigh the cons [of deflate in the default conf], but not that there aren't any cons. I think there's a lot of prerequisite work to be done before enabling this on the type of unsuspecting users who wouldn't have ever thought about it in the first place (the beneficiaries). I still strongly disagree that lack of deflate in the "default build" or default conf is a significant gate. > I think others have > argued well to enable it by default, while you've simply dismissed them with > your holier-than-thou attitude and lack of any solid rationale. I see the thread differently, notably with respect to where it started and what you quoted. But I appreciate your opinion nonetheless. -- Eric Covener cove...@gmail.com
