FreeArc compactor is the most innovative since PkZip (1989).
However has a bug, simple to solve for almost two years. Long ago I follow the 
evolution of FreeArc for future adoption of a stable release / commercial in my 
company, for deduplication and data compression. The FreeArc solve many of our 
problems in a way that no other tool would.
But today, I see that this is the only problem that affects me in FreeArc, 
since I need the precision in the original dates of the files.
I recall that none of the most popular compressors have this problem.
I would appreciate it greatly if this bug were fixed, since while it is not 
resolved, for me, FreeArc is just a wonderful promise.
Congratulations on your fantastic achievement. This is the greatest software 
I've seen in recent years.
