Subject: [cgmo-webcgm] draft text- CGM gzip compression

All

Insert under 1.2 Normative references:

   RFC 1952
     GZIP file format specification

Insert new section under 2.4 Encoding:

2.4.1 Compression

HTTP/1.1 allows for compressed data to be passed from server to client,
which can result in significant file size reduction.  CGM data maybe
compressed for transmission using gzip compression. It is recommended
that gzip-compressed CGM files have the extension ".cgz" (all
lowercase)
on all platforms.

(gzip should be linked to)
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1952.txt

Questions- 

Do we need to add CGZ under MIME type section of W3C Overview of WebCGM
Profile?
http://www.w3.org/Graphics/WebCGM/

Normative reference to? http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-
types/image/cgm

Don
