Commons Compress has already got AES support for 7zip so we've filed the necessary papers and there already are the necessary disclaimers in https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=commons-compress.git;a=blob;f=README.txt;h=b743b64210c5d550962e8b88322af24d351aa08f;hb=HEAD#l22 Stefan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
