From their site:

This is already being handled by the in-trunk-but-not-deployed ResourceLoader. It does all the combining and minification of Javascript and CSS.
"It also includes filters for optimizing JPEG and PNG images."
I'm pretty sure we're not running Apache on the media servers, so the benefit here is moot.
In general: cool, and probably useful for a lot of people. Probably not useful for WMF.
