Specifically as part of the Common Archiver Kit Install Pack.
reSource is an archive method very similar to a Bzip2 Tarball. Data files packed this way begin with the "magic number" RSVKDATA and usually have .rs as the file extension.
The source code was downloaded and reposted for archival purposes. .rs files have been seen in the wild, but not much information is available online and the original information from the early 2000s is disappearing from the net.
Thank God for the web archive! :)

Looks like the QuickZip / QZip web site was available at least until July 2015.
