Hi all

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-207 asks for progress
tracking inside BZip2CompressorInputStream. As such I think the request
is to narrow (why add it for bzip2 but not gzip2?) and I created the
branch COMPRESS-207 for a prototypical implementation. This is
incomplete since I only really added support for bzip2 and only on the
reading side[1].

Is this a feature we generally want to see in compress? And if so, does
the branch make sense or should we tackle this in a different way?

Stefan

[1] right now CompressorOutputStreams don't even provide the number of
    bytes written.
