So you're class does only allow to compress, is that what you are trying

Only than being a unix does make you clueless about zip. And please
stop your pointless comments as you perfectly know what provides the
class.

Now we can either continue this endless FUD about renaming Zip or just
accept that we don't agree and wait the next names clashes to finally
take the right decisions.

Or we finally have this discussion, act and see what will fit best for
ZipCompressedFile and DateTimeZone and friends.

We did actually come to a consensus Pierre. And that is that PHP owns the top-level namespace, but we should use decent descriptive names and avoid any obvious clashes.

ext/date does date, time and timezone stuff, so its classes become DateTime and DateTimeZone. pecl/zip deals with Zip archives, compressing, decompressing, listing, etc. so it makes plenty of sense to call it ZipArchive. And yes, if we some day do a Zip code extension, it would likely be called ZipCode and not Zip as well.

If anybody doesn't think this is the consensus we reached, please speak up, but I am pretty sure we have majority agreement here, so let's just please move on.
