Umm, yeah. Massive 9 votes. Looks like SharpZipLib it is. I checked right now and it's using MIT license now, which should allow to take a piece of code and use. -- Mgr. Jiří Činčura Independent IT Specialist --

Re: [Firebird-net-provider] Zlib library

SharpZipLib looks to be more actively maintained and with clearer and more permissive licensing. It's a dependency of most of my project anyway so I would not mind it. An alternative to an external dependency is an intree copy with unnecesary bits(eg. bzip2,tar) removed. Out of curiosity why is
