Why? I'm not asking you, Tim, I just wonder why one would they invent
their own dialect of an existing format? The stream indetifier is a 14
bytes and the checksum is a few bytes per chunk that are actually
helpful.

Subject: [COMPRESS] .iwa files within latest iOS iWorks files?

All,
  Over on Tika, we recently had a user post some new Apple iWorks files.  These 
are zips that now contain mostly .iwa files.  I found one mention on the 
internet that these might be snappy compressed, but I'm not having luck opening 
them.  I get only -1 with SNAPPY_RAW, and I get an exception with SNAPPY_FRAMED.
  The files are posted on our jira [0].
  Any recommendations?  Thank you.

  Best,

   Tim
