bzip2 in Rust

Memory safe implementation of bzip2 compression algorithm

The `bzip2` compression format is still used in many legacy settings. onsequently, it is part of the supply chain of many projects. To mitigate these risks, this project will deliver a memory-safe implementation of bzip2 through drop-in replacements of the libraries and a safe Rust `bzip2` binary.

Run by Trifecta Tech Foundation + Armijn Hemel
