A new minor release of Deflate is available, which only contains two changes from 1.0.0:

1. Due to popular demand, the Deflate system is now called "deflate" instead of "Deflate", thus allowing (require :deflate) or (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :deflate) to do the right thing. Note that this is an incompatible change from version 1.0.0, thus requiring changes to system definition or init files referencing "Deflate" to reference "deflate" or :deflate or #:deflate instead. Sorry for the inconvenience.

2. A minor bug workaround for ECL, which also improves performance on ECL by a factor of 2 (although performance on ECL is still very much non-optimized, patches are always welcome). Note that you will need to use ECL from the current git repository, since only this version currently contains other fixes needed to let Deflate work correctly (thanks go to Juan Jose Garcia-Ripoll for the quick fixes)!
