jzlib dependency policy version

[Saurabh8887]

Hi team,

We are using jzlib dependency in our project, in whitesource(mend) analysis we found jzlib dependency gives Policy violation issue.
Is there alternate present for it.
Also, are you planning to remove/modify the same dependency in near future.
Please let us know.

I believe this repository has been abandoned. JRuby depends on jzlib, so we have continued to maintain and release it from https://github.com/jruby/jzlib. We would love to have you as a user and contributor!

@headius In case you are interested, a couple years ago I rewrote the unit test suite from Scala into pure Java for our version of JZlib that we incorporated into JSch.
See https://github.com/mwiede/jsch/tree/master/src/test/java/com/jcraft/jsch/jzlib.

@norrisjeremy Oh very nice! I'd find that easier to maintain. Could you do a PR to jruby/jzlib to switch the tests?

Ideally we could settle on one library. Perhaps we merge our efforts?
