[Grok-dev] Enable gzip/http compression in Grok/Zope site

Mon Aug 2 14:49:18 EDT 2010

Ooooh... Then is "paster"

And when I try to google "paster web server enable gzip", it tries to
search "paste web server enable gzip"... and there's a lot of
copy/paste in the world...  :-D

Thanks for the hint... I'm sure I'll end up finding something useful
