The individual files are between 4.5MB and 15MB each. We are talking about the ZIPs in <http://people.apache.org/~bodewig/commons-compress/> and five of those attached to <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-36>. Not exactly huge but too big to have them i trunk IMHO. > (2) That leaves some place that the build can handle downloading and caching > automatically, which is what Maven and Ivy are good at doing. I created <http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/compress/test-resources/> which holds the POM for such a test-resources artifact. I copied the eleven archives used during the tests into src/main/resources and ran "mvn package" and something surprising happened. The resulting jar is 5MB in size. I.e. we have one of the very rare cases where compressing a ZIP with ZIP reduces the archive size considerably because it still contains lots of redundant data. How do I proceed? Upload the jar and pom to Nexus (pgp signed, of course) and call for a vote?
