Sorry, those pages are very old. We haven't heard from Loren Peace for
a long time. The current plan is to import the java.util.zip implementation
from libgcj <http://gcc/gnu.org/java/>. The only problem is that the native
part is written in CNI and for Classpath we want (also) a JNI version in
Classpath so VMs that only support JNI can also use it.
Jochen Hoenicke has made a CNI to JNI conversion that can be found at
<http://www.informatik.uni-oldenburg.de/~delwi/classpath/JCL/>.
I still have not gotten around to testing and importing it in Classpath.

Could you compare it to the version in libgcj?
If you want to contribute large (more then 10/20 lines) pieces of code
you do have to sign over your copyright to the FSF. That way all Classpath
code can be legally defended by the FSF.
Thanks,
Mark
