<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2>Hello,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2>Last week, I tested the zip files found on my
hard drive (see previous message) as suggested by Gilles Vollant.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2>I wrote another software to check all the files
of a selected directory.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2>This program (for Windows) is named CheckZlib
and can be found at this URL :</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2>My results for all the directories of two
PC (compression and decompression) with </FONT><FONT color=#008080 size=2>160
000 files for a volume of 29 gigabytes :</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2>no wrong decompression with zlib 1.2.1
(zlib1.dll and zlibwapi.dll were tested)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2>Conclusions :</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2>1/ To answer the question asked by Gilles,
the probability of wrong decompression with version 1.2.1 seems to be very
low.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2>2/ Even with this large amount of tested
files, the problem is not detected.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2>3/ To do harder tests, the zlib-devel community
have to test the future dll on several computers : a dozen or
more ? But without any assurance.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2>When can we expect a new version ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#008080 size=2>Regards</FONT></DIV>
