Thanks for this pointer.

Would you please elaborate on "everyone" and "industry" as used above?

Please note the related requirements document [WAPF-REQ] includes a  
number of design goals including "Current development practice and  
industry best-practices". Additionally, all of the vendors noted in  
the Appendix's first table support ZIP. If you are aware of any  
errors in this table and/or can point us to missing entries, please  
send us the data.

Regards,

Art Barstow
