    Message : [setup.py] use MSVC 10.0 when compiling for Windows Python 2.7 Python 2.7 for Windows is compiled using MS Visaul C++ 9.0 (Visual Studio 2008). However the latter does not support many modern C++ features which are required to compile the Brotli encoder. So we monkey-patch distutils to always look for MSVC version 10.0 instead of 9.0.

    Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed with deflate but offers more dense compression.

    The specification of the Brotli Compressed Data Format is defined in the following internet draft: http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-alakuijala-brotli
