I've started working on such a thing (although the first format
targeted is .tar.bz2, .zip should not be much harder to read).  I'm
still trying to sort out how to use git for boost contributions at
this point.  gitorious was apparently broken when I tried to clone the
svn branch.  If I still can't do it, I might just push this to github
which works for me.
