-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The Apache Commons Team is pleased to announce the release of Apache Commons Compress 1.13.
Compress 1.13 adds write support for LZMA as raw streams as well as inside 7z archives. Independently developed compressors and archivers can now be added via the standard ServiceLocator mechanism and ZIP and 7z archives can now be read from a SeekableByteChannel rather than a File. Compress 1.13 is the first release that requires Java 7 at runtime. The Apache Commons Compress Library defines a Java API for working with ar, cpio, tar, zip, 7z, arj, dump, gzip, pack200, bzip2, lzma, snappy, Z, xz and deflate files. Source and binary distributions are available for download from the Apache Commons download site: http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-compress/download_compress.cgi When downloading, please verify signatures using the KEYS file available at the above location when downloading the release. Changes in this version include: New features: o SevenZFile, SevenZOutputFile, ZipFile and ZipArchiveOutputStream can now work on non-file resources if they can be accessed via SeekableByteChannel.

Thanks to Mike Mole. o ZipArchiveInputStream now throws an Exception if it encounters a broken ZIP archive rather than signaling end-of-archive. Issue: COMPRESS-367.
