HTTP Compression for Web Services. With all the talk about the verbosity of XML, I wonder if the existing compression capabilities of HTTP 1.1 aren't a reasonable solution. Certainly, this doesn't make XML any faster to parse, and it applies only to web services over HTTP, but it's an existing standard that's widely implemented. GZIP compression of XML should be reasonably effective. This article by S. Radhakrishnan on IBM developerWorks inspired this question.
