Alex, please can you give the exact list of files (java sources, tests, resources, etc.) that you await to be moved? Thanks.

> The pack200 code currently lives in the archive module, which will ultimately result in a tighter coupling of the internal pack200 code and the external java.util.jar code. Furthermore, whilst the java.util.jar is using generics internally, the pack200 stuff needs to avoid the use of generics and putting it into a different module will allow the compiler and project settings to be appropriately amended.
> We should create another module (e.g. archive-pack200) and then move the o.a.h.a.internal.pack200 and test code into that new module instead, perhaps with a package name change, and then set up a template build.xml and Manifest.MF.
