<p>A compliant implementation MUST implement the ZLIB compression method as specified in &rfc1950;.

<p>When using ZLIB for compression, the sending application SHOULD complete a partial flush of ZLIB when its current send is complete. Note that this statement is deliberately somewhat vague: the sending application may end up performing this partial flush after sending every XML stanza, but on the other hand may perform the partial flush only after sending a group of stanzas that have been queued up for delivery. When to flush the state of the compression application is up to the sending application.</p>

<section2 topic='LZW (DCLZ)' anchor='impl-lzw'>
<p>The "LZW" compression algorithm was originally developed by Abraham Lempel and Jacob Ziv, subsequently improved by Terry Welch <note>See "A Technique for High-Performance Data Compression", <cite>Computer</cite> (June 1984), pp. 8-19.</note>, and patented by Sperry Corporation (later Unisys Corporation) as U.S. Patent Number 4,464,650 <note>See &lt;<link url='http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?patentnumber=4,464,650'>http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?patentnumber=4,464,650</link>&gt;.</note>. This patent expired on June 20, 2003 <note>See &lt;<link url='http://www.unisys.com/about__unisys/lzw'>http://www.unisys.com/about__unisys/lzw</link>&gt;.</note> and therefore implementations are no longer patent-encumbered. If this algorithm is supported, implementations SHOULD follow the specification provided by Ecma International in &ecma151; under the name "DCLZ".</p>
