Hi,

I'm looking at replacing boinc_zip for various reasons, mainly it's been a 
kludge of two libraries which are old & complicated to update, and thinking of 
moving to something like the bzip2 lib (which also compresses better).

as far as I know it's just CPDN, QCN, Rosetta, and Einstein that use it?  and I 
think Einstein had some extra code for validating a zip file?  So I would like 
to get some feedback on doing away with boinc_zip and replacing it with a 
better underlying compression routine.  This would be done over a few months to 
6 months -- as I'm going back to CPDN & juggling working on that & QCN, so 
won't have much time.  

Or I'd be happy if someone else is interested in porting my boinc_zip wrapper 
with an underlying compression routine such as bzip2 or whatever is in vogue & 
secure these days!
