RE: svn commit: r1711392 - in /serf/trunk: buckets/response_buckets.cserf_bucket_types.h

[be...@qqmail.nl]

See yesterdays mail from the mod_speed project.

They want to user serf on an intermediate server to fetch the response from a server using serf and then send it out to clients after some filtering.

They currently maintain a local patch to support this usecase.

I agree that I don't see a good reason for final clients, but I think it is useful to support this usecase.

What's this for? Why would somebody turn *off* content decoding?
