Re: MCCP 3

I don't get this - MCCP1 (and indeed 2) is all about compressing the data flow in one direction - and - like most protocols on Telnet it should be negotiated on that basis - so, if there is the capability to compress the data going in the other direction, that should be negotiated in exactly the same way but with the parties that use DO and WILL being swapped over.

I admit that getting one's head around negotiating the option in both directions at the same time is [delete]bloody[/delete] extremely confusing...
