Anyone interested in Java version?

[Tatu Saloranta]

Hi there! I just found this project, when trying to find something
that's significantly faster than basic deflate (gzip), even if it
means bit lower compression. Looks like fastlz might be just the
thing.

Given how straight-forward code is, I was also thinking of trying to
create a Java version of it. I have some experience in optimizing
low-level things in Java, and this seems like a good challenge. But
first I wanted to see if someone had already done this. Or if not, if
anyone else might be interested in seeing such a thing.

Also -- I haven't found a description of the format anywhere. If there
isn't a doc, maybe I could take notes when converting code, to
document what I understand the structure to be. Would this be helpful?

Hi Tatu,

Feel free to post your Java version.

Also, I don't have time to document the format yet, but it should be
simple doing it while you are converting the code.
