Joe,
Once more, for the record, as stated in my email on Saturday:
"No archive format changes are being proposed by this case. The archive
format introduced by the extended attributes case (PSARC/1999/209) was
integrated into the cpio and tar sources over six years ago
(07/29/2001). The new headers introduced at that time are also used
for the extended system attributes for which this case adds support."
This case is complete; it introduces no new archive format extensions.
