No it doesn't, since the compression is optional and it's trivial to
convert between compressed and uncompressed forms. There are actually
two things you can do here - compress the original files, in which
case the server says that they have a 'content-encoding' of gzip or
whatever, or have the server compress them on demand ('transfer-
encoding') for user-agents that say when making a request that they
support that. In the latter case it's completely transparent to
content authors.
