Err... While I know what you want me to do (you want Content-Disposition: inline), I don't know how to do that in the Gmail web interface. Perhaps I'll set up Mozilla Thunderbird, if it can do that :-) > [C]ould you explain a bit what you mean by "optimizations"?

The optimisations I describe would be completely lossless, barring bugs in the software used to carry out these optimisations. - For PNG: the data used to store some images on the CD is not compressed to the highest level. OptiPNG takes those files and tries to recompress them to the highest level, while ensuring that every pixel's color value ends up being the same. - For SVG: the data used to store ALL images on the CD is not optimal for rendering purposes. Inkscape metadata, Sodipodi metadata, ID names for elements that end up unused, gradients defined dozens of times, etc., are bloating the files. Scour.py takes those files and removes this bloat, while ensuring that the new versions render identically to the original. However, since Inkscape's metadata ends up removed, it could be more difficult for users to open these new files in Inkscape. - For XML, as described by Martin Owens: xmllint would remove everything superfluous from all files on the CD, while ensuring that the data is parsed identically. I haven't tested this yet except on one file from the CD (squashfs -> /var/lib/gconf/defaults/%gconf-tree.xml), but that file went from 2,095,034 bytes to 1,779,376 (a savings of 315,658). There's more hope yet.
