KindleUnpack Co-Developers and Interested Parties,

There is still a lot we do not know in case anyone wants to jump in ...

1. the kindlegen generated CONT section (HD_CONTAINER) is actually a full Header of some sort with lots of unknown fields and its own EXTH section. I have added the code to dump the new EXTH section but the fields and what they mean are at unknown.

2. how to unpack an azk file generated for iPhone (it appears to a zip archive with a set of gzipped json objects (skeleton and fragments) and other pieces (similar to a azw3 skeleton and fragments?)

3. what an azw6 file is and how to unpack it
I am hoping since they are paired with azw3 pieces, that azw6 files represent a set of HDImages store inside some kind of container (see the CONT section info above). But this is just a wild guess until we get our hands on one.


So if anyone likes to reverse-engineer things, please take a shot at any of the above.

Thanks,

KevinH
