So it could just as easily be an "unpackage" :-)

We have implemented DZIP now, and I have updated the page
at http://www.topologi.com/public/dzip.html to reflect what
we did. I have updated the sections on DIME, RDDL, CATALOGs
and XPackage to reflect the recent discussions on XML-DEV.

I have removed from DZIP everything that our highly normal
programmers could not get done in half a programmer-day, 
because I think that is a reasonable cut-off which many other vendors 
could justify. I have added a naming convention for DZIP file
themselves.

Cheers
