XML Compression Options?

ergo98 asks: "About a year ago I had the need to evaluate XML compression technologies (for a project where two machines had to communicate via XML document, and there was an excess of CPU power and a dearth of bandwidth): At the time the best option seemed to be a research project called XMill, however it seemed even then to be an abandoned project with no more updates and little market presence, and was only source available as a command line utility requiring reworking into library form. I'm curious if there's been any progress in the XML compression arena in the past year: If you have more CPU power than bandwidth what is the best option for XML document compression? Has any XML specific compression algorithms been made as a module for Apache?"
