Subject: RE: [security-services] Bug in the bindings doc; wrong RFC
Correcting myself slightly, it was originally RFC1952 that was being incorrectly referenced and that was changed to point to 1951 early on. It may be that use with most libraries would require 1950/zlib and that referencing DEFLATE isn't sufficient to specify the wire format. The point was to avoid formats like gzip that presumed a lot of metadata about the stream that was N/A to this use case. If the DEFLATE scheme is itself enough to be "descriptive", then the spec, IMHO, is correct. It may be that using zlib instead is preferable, and an alternate encoding could be developed for that. -- Scott
