Hi devs,

I’ve now renamed the module from Zip Module (xwiki-platform-zip) to VFS Module 
(xwiki-platform-vfs) at 
http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/VFSComponent

Is it too bold or are you ok with making it that generic? :)

I feel it’s better to make it the most generic possible from the onset to avoid 
too many refactorings in the future and it seems all concepts apply to any VFS.

Thanks
-Vincent
