that was my idea though not all tables have passed review yet :)
the ones which passed can be commited of course, sorry if i havnt
been clear in my review, i thought it was clear ...

iam also not too happy about the compression but kostya has just a
modem or isdn or something else ancient IIRC so iam not complaining
forcing him to upload 400k over a 300bps modem would be too evil ;)
btw, didnt these modems do lzw compression ...
