But that may take a while. In the mean time a pragmatic, low impact way to improve speed and completeness of site retrieval could greatly improve Freenet's usability. Waiting is annoying; waiting for something that doesn't show up in the end even more.
Transparent unzipping at the client side doesn't sound too bad to me. It's no rocket science, doesn't seem to have much architectural consequences and offers a fairly smooth fall back mechanism for those with older clients (i.e. anyone can unzip). But then again I haven't spent much time under the hood of Freenet, so I may be wrong.
Cheers,
Menno
