The ZIP implementation is very basic. I've started exoerimenting with this quite a while ago writing a RAM filesystem as to experiment w.ith the complexities. I would definitely be interested in working with you on this even if it is only for shared learning. As one dives deeper into it there's a lot of 'devil in details' and two minds are better than one to bounce ideas around.

Ralph has mentioned in the past an idea about rewriting commons-vfs using java.nio.file from Java 7. I was playing with this API today attempting to abstract some S3 file operations using < https://github.com/Upplication/Amazon-S3-FileSystem-NIO2> and found that the API is pretty nice. OpenJDK already contains implementations for the normal file system and zip files if I recall correctly (so probably also jar files). Anyways, if we were to go forward with starting work on this, should we just make a commons-vfs3 branch in the vfs repo? Or does this belong in the sandbox? -- Matt Sicker <boa...@gmail.com>
