Alternatives to SharpZipLib for use with .Net C# application [closed]

Tags:

licensing

Does anyone have recommendations for an alternative library to SharpZipLib for full featured ZIP file handling using C#?

The reason we're looking for an alternative is the licensing. Despite the added clause to that projects GPL license, it still doesn't fly with our legal requirements. Most other open source licenses will do, especially academic or BSD-esque. Commercial licenses are also cool.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks.

Hey all, thanks for the tips. I ended up finding one alternative in (the obviously named): DotNetZip

It's licensed under the MSPL, which is on our OK'ed license list. Will report back on success.

A related question was asked here which may give you what you need, although the answer focuses only on zipping using the framework itself (.Net3.5)
