Serena commented on HTTPCLIENT-816:
-----------------------------------
Yes, this was needed.
LOVE it when software purists get knocked down a peg ("boo hoo we're not a
browser!"). They think they know what a product "should be" but don't know what
the market actually wants/needs. I am so. glad. that software developers are
not C-suite decision makers.
> HttClient should support Accept-Encoding: gzip out of the box

> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient

> Components: HttpClient (classic)
> Affects Versions: 3.1.1
> Environment: Any
> Reporter: James Abley
> Priority: Minor

> Original Estimate: 1h
> Remaining Estimate: 1h

> I think HttpClient really ought to support Accept-Encoding: gzip without
> requiring any effort from the client developer. Allowing Content-Encoding:
> gzip responses can be a great bandwidth saver.
> But it also needs to cater for developers that have coded their own solution
> to this issue.
