Hi Mario,

I'm not sure if you're familiar with Truezip 
(https://truezip.dev.java.net), but it's a library
that allows for read + write access to zip/gz/tar/bz2 and other types of 
archives.

I've implemented a quicky VFS provider for it, and it seems to work 
(took all of a whopping 20 minutes :-) ).

I'm wondering if VFS is interested in this code - I'd be happy to 
contribute it.
(it's just three classes and largely copied from the local filesystem 
implementation).

Let me know if you're interested and how you'd like to proceed. Truezip 
is under ASF license;
and has been released (v 6.4 currently), so I doubt that we'll run into 
problems for releasing
this.

Cheers!
- Filip
