> the jar utility supports a -0 option that, when supplied, skips zip compression for the resulting jar file.  This is desirable when creating jar dependencies that consist of large binary files - one wants access to the binaries to be as fast as possible at runtime with no decompression overhead.
> jdcasey tells me that there's an option on the underlying library to skip compression, but that it's not configurable on the assembly plugin itself.  With that in mind, hopefully this is just a matter of exposing functionality rather than implementing it anew.
