This is a discussion list which means we discuss ideas, both to agree and disagree. I don't think I'm being negative. I'm very positive about this proposal, and I don't want to see it get bogged down with bike-shedding about the precise compression/encoding algorithm used. If Pablo, or any other volunteer such as yourself, wants to go down that track to investigate the data distribution, I'm not going to tell them that they must not. Go for it! But I'd rather not make this a mandatory prerequisite for the PEP.
