Geert,

When did this become an option?  I thought zlib in the crypto
interface was not compatible with zlib.  Is that not the case anymore?
 Have you looked at AXFS enough to judge if this would be as easy a
job as it looks to convert?


How do you get from here to supporting alternate compressors?
