Hi all,

Compress' trunk has been sitting on valuable content for too long now:

* XZ compression

* BZIP2 now reads streams created by pbzip2 (parallel bzip2)

* TAR has been largely improved to support reading and writing big
  files, old files and files with long names - as well as encodings
  other than ASCII - in several ways supporting multiple dialects.

There is one backwards incompatible change, tar now uses the platform's
native encoding for file names (like GNU tar does) rather than
ISO-8859-1.

I intend to build a release candidate sometime during the next week
unless anybody objects.  In order to incorporate feedback before I
create the RC I've built the site for review at
http://people.apache.org/~bodewig/commons-compress/

Stefan
