I wrote an uncompress module awhile back and did’nt keep up with it enough to get merged in. I believe other people are working on uncompress / compress stuff at the moment.

Is there any value in [https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-extras/pull/1301](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-extras/pull/1301) anymore, or should I just close that out? I am leaning towards closing it out, just wanted to check with yall.

Thank you,  
Jon
