This email is to inform you about the release of version '1.2.1' of 'zlib' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can be found at http://freshmeat.net/projects/zlib/ The changes in this release are as follows: This release adds many improvements and features to zlib. Project description: zlib is designed to be a free, general-purpose, legally unencumbered, lossless data-compression library for use on virtually any computer hardware and operating system. The zlib data format is itself portable across platforms. Unlike the LZW compression method used in Unix compress(1), the compression method currently used in zlib essentially never expands the data. (LZW can double or triple the file size in extreme cases.) zlib's memory footprint is also independent of the input data and can be reduced, if necessary, at some cost in compression. Trove categories: [Development Status ] 5 - Production/Stable [License ] OSI Approved :: zlib/libpng License [Operating System ] OS Independent [Programming Language] C [Topic ] Software Development :: Libraries, System :: Archiving :: Compression If you would like to cancel subscription to releases of this project, login to freshmeat.net and choose 'home' from the personal menubar at the top of the page.
