RE: [boost] Any interrest for zip/bzip2 iostreams ?

I've uploaded a new version of the zipstream (see link below)

- the library is now fully "policized": to add a new compression algorithm, 
you (basically) need to write to small policy classes.
- bzip2 library added
- adds compress, decompress methods. For example, to compress a stream to 
another:

     gzip_compressor gz;
     compress( input_stream, output_stream, gz) ;

and decompress
     gzip_decompressor dgz;
     decompress( compress_intput_stream, output_stream, dgz);

More suggestions :)
