I'm working on the C# version and found some improvement are possible.
For example SevenZip.Compression.RangeCoder.Encoder presume the Stream is seekable, but it's not always true. I use 7zip to compresse data on the fly during web request, http stream are not seekable. It's very easy to correct this.
Also why not init coder and decoder with default properties?
You have LZMA.Encoder.WriteCoderProperties but you don't have LZMA.Decoder.ReadCoderProperties...

Hi,
It's not clear how we can contribute.

For compatibility with other LZMA implementations.
HOW CAN WE CONTRIBUTE!?
Still would like to contribute and get working on the ability to detect the need for a subfolder on extraction.
Sevenzip can easily beat others if you let us contribute.... github

Dear @ipavlov: I would like an official organization and repository by product too, to have a better development and contributions.
I think it is very important to do it quickly, we are in 2021, soon in 2022.
More 10 years since the request.
Thanks in advance.
