Description

Hi,

Google release a new compression algorithm called Brotli.
A new compression algorithm for the internet, as they claim.
Currently Firefox and Chrome (both developer editions) already
support Brotli, as such as e.g. ngingx.
http://google-opensource.blogspot.de/2015/09/introducing-brotli-new-compression.html

I'm the author of jbrotli - the Java bindings for brotli.

I'm curios and doing a survey, if jBrotli is an option for parquet?
Feedback is welcome.

Thanks in advance
Martin
