WebService Compression

Hi,

We're starting a new project with WebServices and I have a few qeustions
about the compression mechanisms we can use.

We have already tested with Http Compression and WSE Compression, but I'm
looking for a solution which is platform independant.
We are wrinting Web Services which will be accessed from C# applications,
but some of our customers aren't on the MS platform, and they wish to use
Java to access our WebServices.

I've heard HTTP Compression on IIS 6 can only be used by clients who have IE
5 or later installed. So for our clients which aren't on MS Windows, this
won't work.
The WSE solution can't be used for Java clients.

Any suggestions for a multi-platform solution ?

Kind regards,
Frederic

Hard, to tell because the site seems to be down at this time.
I'm looking for a way to compress sent from server to client, but
implementation should be possible on different client platforms.

We've tried the WSE approach, which is really a nice solution :

but the problem is WSE isn't supported on Java. I'm looking for alternatives
which works on multiple platforms.

Kind regards,
