-This package provides methods to read files from a JAR file and
-to transform them to a more compact transfer format called Pack200.
-It also provides methods to receive the transmitted data and expand
-it into a JAR file equivalent to the original JAR file.
-
-<p> 
-The <tt>pack</tt> methods may be used by application developers
-who wish to deploy large JARs on the web.  The <tt>unpack</tt> methods may be used 
-by deployment applications such as Java Web Start and Java Plugin.
-
-<p>
-In typical use, the packed output should be further compressed using
-a suitable tool such as gzip or <tt>java.util.zip.GZIPOutputStream</tt>.
-The resulting file (with a suffix ".pack.gz") should be hosted on a HTTP/1.1
-compliant server, which will be capable of handling "Accept-Encoding",
-as specified by the HTTP 1.1 RFC2616 specification.
-
-<p>
-<b>NOTE:</b> It is recommended that the original ".jar" file be hosted
-in addition to the ".pack.gz" file, so that older client implementations
-will continue to work reliably.
-(On-demand compression by the server is not recommended.)
-
-<p>
-When a client application requests a ".jar" file (call it "Large.jar"),
-the client will transmit the  headers
-"Content-Type=application/x-java-archive" as well as "Accept-Encoding=pack200-gzip".
-This indicates to the server that the client application desires an version
-of the file encoded with Pack200 and further compressed with gzip.
-
-<p>
-The server implementation will typically check for the existence of "Large.pack.gz".
-If that file is available, the server will transmit it with the headers
-"Content-Encoding=pack200-gzip" and "Content-Type=application/x-java-archive". 
-
-<p>
-If the ".pack.gz" file, is not available, then the server will transmit
-the original ".jar"
-with "Content-Encoding=null" and "Content-Type=application/x-java-archive".
-
-<p>
-A MIME type of "application/x-java-pack200" may be specified by the
-client application to indicate a ".pack" file is required.
-However, this has limited capability, and is not recommended.
