1. [New issue] Replacement Of SharpZipLib
http://ironpython.codeplex.com/workitem/33955
User JohnDavidson has proposed the issue:

"The decision to include SharpZipLib, which is licensed under GNU v2 + classpath exception, in IronPython was made back in 2006 see : http://grokbase.com/t/python/ironpython-users/069qr708df/ironpython-gzip-module

However since that time the Apache Foundation has given more complete direction about what can and cannot be included in an Apache Licensed application. See http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-x and http://www.apache.org/licenses/GPL-compatibility.html 

Full compliance with licensing requirements for the Apache license could be achieved by using the DotNetZip Library which uses the compatible MsPL license, and has components under a BSD license and a Zlib license"
