Hey Conrad,

I was just looking at this last week. Some recent work on marshalling  
landed on trunk recently (thanks Laurent!), which is one of the pieces  
needed. The other major missing piece is zlib. I was looking at what  
would be needed to port this to MacRuby. However, there is also Zliby (http://zliby.rubyforge.org/ 
), a Pure-Ruby zlib that was written for IronRuby. Not sure what the  
preference regarding these two options is. Perhaps some benchmarking  
could settle the debate?
