**[David Bullock](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=dtbullock)** commented An implementation note: * Google now has [Brotli](http://google-opensource.blogspot.com.au/2015/09/introducing-brotli-new-compression.html) and it would seem to be a matter of time before Tomcat would support a similar idea for that encoding (probably with a the extension [.br](http://siliconangle.com/blog/2015/10/12/social-justice-warrior-forces-google-to-drop-bro-extension-in-brotli-due-to-it-being-misogynistic/)). So although one would not do the work of a Brotli compresssion algorithm prematurely (YAGNI), one should anticipate this by suitable decoupling in code and some forethought for how to specify which algorithms to apply in future. If multiple algorithms are supported, I would expect that some clients will ask for GZIP encoding, and others for Brotli encoding, such that both .gz and .br forms will need to be generated in the future. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
