Sebb commented on COMPRESS-54:
------------------------------

We need to check first whether public domain is OK to use in an ASF project.

I think there have been some questions as to whether this is allowed; AFAIK 
it's not covered in the existing rules.

Also, the Wikipedia page says that the LZMA compression is similar to deflate, 
so maybe that will help understand the code.

> Add 7zip or RAR archive support

> Has anyone looked into adding support for 7zip and RAR file types? Using the 
> j7zip and junrar libraries I was able to get a rough protoype working with 
> commons-compress but only with extract support for RAR (due to licencing 
> issues). Also, my prototype performance is poor so I definately need to 
> improve it.
