Hi,

webrev has been updated to use the name space jdk.nio.zipfs. http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sherman/8038500/webrev/ Thanks, I think this makes sense.

For further down the road then consideration could be given to make ZipFileAttributes/ZipFileAttributeView public and supported so as to provide type safe access to zip specific attributes.

JarFileSystemProvider will also need discussion at some point to decide whether it should be added to the service configuration file so that JAR URLs are supported.
