As far as I can tell, LuaZip is an orphaned project. The latest release from Kepler is from 2007. The code seems stable, so taking over maintenence seems a low-overhead activity, but I don't wish to maintain it myself. There's a git-conversion of the CVS from LuaForge at: https://github.com/luaforge/luazip Ryan, if you wish to fork this, commit the changes and tag a new release, I can help you out with the rockspec. -- Hisham ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ HPCC Systems Open Source Big Data Platform from LexisNexis Risk Solutions Find What Matters Most in Your Big Data with HPCC Systems Open Source.
