Question: I am trying to enable other compression forms in zipfile, in particular bzip2, but eventually extensible. My primary intent is to extend the useful life of .zips by allowing better compression (and enabling reading and writing zip formats that are starting to be created from other sources). Would it make sense to include bzip2 in here as well (if the zipfile changes go in)? --Scott David Daniels [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
