Here is the explanation why NRV isn't included in UPX.

Sorry, I meant that it isn't included in the UPX *source*.


That's why another author LÃszlà MolnÃr remain silent.

Because NRV isn't available even to him!!! :-( Have you ever signed an NDA?


Too bad, I think UPX project is stopped if no one want to pick up the code.

It's not actually stopped, but with this tempo, UPX 2.0 will be ready not earlier than in 2010. Actually, you can pick up the source and build it, but it will be UCL, not NRV! :-(


By the way, the fact that NRV is the most secret data compression library in the world doesn't automatically make it the best compression library in the world. For most DOS executable files smaller than about 150 KB (more than 99% of DOS programs), aPack with its aPlib is unbeatable!
