OxiArc 0.3.3 is a correctness release: Brotli now round-trips high-entropy and incompressible data byte-for-byte across all quality levels 1–11. A package-merge Huffman code generator and an extended insert-length table fix two long-standing encoder bugs. Pure Rust, on-the-wire compatible, 1,679 tests passing.
12 archive formats and 10 compression algorithms implemented from scratch in pure Rust. DEFLATE up to 400 MB/s, SIMD-accelerated CRC (3–4.5× faster), full async streaming, Brotli + Snappy support, LZH (Japanese legacy) full support. ~47k SLoC, 12 crates, 1,041 tests. The sovereign data packaging layer for SciRS2 and the entire COOLJAPAN ecosystem (now 21M+ SLoC total).
OxiArc 0.2.5 adds two brand-new compression crates — Brotli (RFC 7932, quality 0-11) and Snappy (block + framed with CRC32C) — bringing the workspace to 12 crates and 12 container formats. Plus DEFLATE/GZip/Zlib streaming with flush modes, LZW streaming, and an EntryBuilder fluent API. 1,038 tests, all passing. Pure Rust archive and compression — no C, no zlib, no libarchive.
