Star-1.5.1 is also available from Blastwave.
The star on SchilliX has one new feature:

1) create a meta data only archive with star -c -dump -meta . > arch
2) extraxt the archive uwing star -xp -xmeta -force-hole < arch
   in order to create all plain files as 100% empty holes

New is the combination "-xmeta -force-hole". Such a tree does nse nearly no
space on disk and it is sufficient as a reference for a wget -mirror
call.

Nothing new that was not yet part of previous SchilliX release. I created 
this release mainly in order to have a start base for replacing closed source
stuff from Sun/Oracle.
