Regarding bzipping postgres tarballs:
Did we ever reach a consensus on this issue? I'd like to see
alternate forms start appearing for each version (moving forward)
so that people can download either (for example)
postgresql-7.2.tar.gz or postgresql-7.2.tar.bz2 as they wish.
I'm not advocating *replacing* gz; I just think we should offer
this as an alternate form for those who have the correct tools
and wish to save space and download time.
Thanks,
Greg Sabino Mullane greg(at)turnstep(dot)com
