[drakma-devel] Patch - Accept-Encoding: gzip

[Edi Weitz]

Hi Red,

Thanks for the patch.  (But note the guidelines at
<http://weitz.de/patches.html>...)

I'm unsure whether I want to accept the patch, though.  I don't really
want to add a dependency on another library which in turn depends on
another library for a pretty rare case.  I'd rather implement a hook
or something so that Drakma users can pre-process the content
externally.

Cheers,
Edi.
