Motivation: The HTTP/2 codec does not provide a way to decompress data. This functionality is supported by the HTTP codec and is expected to be a commonly used feature. Modifications: -The Http2FrameReader will be modified to allow hooks for decompression -New classes which detect the decompression from HTTP/2 header frames and uses that decompression when HTTP/2 data frames come in -New unit tests Result: The HTTP/2 codec will provide a means to support data decompression

How to build
For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.
You require the following to build Netty:
- Latest stable Oracle JDK 7
- Latest stable Apache Maven
- If you are on Linux, you need additional development packages installed on your system, because you'll build the native transport.
Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.
Branches to look
The 'master' branch is where the development of the latest major version lives on. The development of all other versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to <majorVersion>.<minorVersion>. For example, the development of 3.9 and 4.0 resides in the branch '3.9' and the branch '4.0' respectively.
