CHANGES SINCE LAST RELEASE?
FEATURE: Support on-the-fly gzip compression of ADP page responses
based on HTTP request's Accept-Encoding header and ns_adp_compress
control mechanism.
FEATURE: Provide NS_VERSION_NUM definition to make conditionalized
testing of AOLserver version at build time easy.
CHANGE: Ns_Compress() renamed to Ns_CompressGzip() in anticipation
of other compression algorithms to be supported.
