Hi,

ok, i didn't finish all the code necessary, but i remember there are
only smaller chunks left to write.

I think this would work; i contributed a few lines code before with
the help of the commons people in here. I think Mario (VFS) may also
be interested in this.

Yes, we could, but as far as i understood people didn't want to use
this sun-specific packages and implemented these classes themself
under Apache License. However, its possible to extend compress with
own packages, so one can rely on those you mentioned with writing some
kind of plugin.

Best,
Chris
