If you ask everybody, they always knew what they were doing, even when
something went wrong.

If there is no real usecase for a feature, and this feature is known to
be a potential risk, it is our duty to make sure people will not shoot
themselves in the foot.

If you have a use case that you think can benefit big time by having
compression, please feel free to describe it in details. Therefore might
be saner ways to address it.


If somebody feels being expert enough and knows what he is doing more
than the others, he can still re-add the feature (i.e. by reverting any
patch that might be removing the code) and recompile OpenVPN. The beauty
of Open Source :-)

Cheers,
