unzoo uses different parameters, e.g. "unzoo -l a.zoo" vs. "zoo v a.zoo"
and "unzoo -x a.zoo" vs. "unzoo x a.zoo".

List format seems to be almost identical:

schoepf@ganymed:~$ unzoo -l gp.zoo

Archive gp.zoo:

The unzoo deb is currently sitting in
ftp-master.debian.org:/org/ftp.debian.org/queue/new/unzoo_4.4-1_i386.deb
It contains a README that has a section about compatibility with
zoo/booz.

Eduard Bloch <edi@gmx.de> indicated that he would add support for it to
the unp package. Maybe that can be used by amavis, too.
