"We hope that this format will be supported by major browsers" - if I'm not mistaken it should also be implemented by all major webservers. In that regard I'm hoping Opera open sources or sells their OMPD proxy platform. Someone made a chrome extension which interfaces with their network and the speed is amazing. OMPD is a tradeoff and breaks certain javascript and css and is different from Opera Turbo, I am not sure what compression Turbo uses currently. Does anyone know if Brotli gets implemented in the google server and proxy compression? http://browsingthenet.blogspot.nl/2014/09/chrome-data-compression-proxy-vs-mozilla-janus-vs-opera-turbo.html http://browsingthenet.blogspot.nl/2014/09/chrome-data-compre...

> I'm hoping Opera open sources or sells their OMPD proxy platform. They won't open source it: the compression tech has for a number of years accounted for a large proportion of Opera's (browser) income. I also don't actually know what OMPD is. Opera Mini server? That's tied sufficiently closely to Presto that it'll only ever get released if Presto does. The more recent Opera Turbo and the Opera Mini 11 for Android "high-compression mode" (though I have no idea how that really differs to Opera Turbo! [edit: per @brucel it is Opera Turbo]) are certainly available for licensing; Yandex Browser supports Opera Turbo, for example.
