Hi,
Today I was asked to contact this list about the 2013-01-01 proposal
described in Feature Request 63880.
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63880
Please implement some kind of lzma compression, e.g. xz or lzip,
alongside gzip and bzip2 in php.
The original proposal asked for xz compression; it seems that one may
argue in favor of a different implementation such as lzip for reasons
I found today at
https://www.nongnu.org/lzip/xz_inadequate.html
My request, although originally made for xz compression, is about
implementing lzma (or any kind of modern, strong) compression in php
to hopefully easily replace bzip2 in user applications, such as
phpBB's database backup function.
Anyone may freely open an RFC or onwiki discussion about this on my
behalf whenever they like to, and even if they read this message
multiple years later.
Best regards
Tobias Frei
