I'm pleased to announce the first draft for the ZIP Module
specification is now available at:
http://expath.org/spec/zip
To quote from the spec:
'This specification defines a set of functions to read and write ZIP
files structure and actual content. It has been designed as a general
ZIP tool set for XPath, while it is expected to be particularly useful
with document package formats based on XML and ZIP, as for instance
[EPUB], [Open XML], and [OpenDocument].'
Though this is a collaborative work, the original design and
implementation for this module was by Florent Georges.
Florent's Saxon (Java) implementation is currently the only free
implementation of this specification that's available. A separate
implementation (using Saxon.NET) is also now incorporated in Qutoric's
commercial XPath and XSLT test/publishing tools.
