hello,

i know that the minizip idea is tempting and i can dump all the
details here if you wish to participate.
one requirement that was implied but not listed (as i just added it)
is that the contributor will have to build for Windows and test the
build there, as this is the problematic platform.

like Dirk said, it would be best if you send a couple of trivial
patches at first, which technically means that you are able to build
the project.
instructions can be found in the files INSTALL and CodingStyle.
