| 7 | Is there a need for that? Considering that I can't name any snapshot |
| 8 | provider which does offer .zip but doesn't offer .tar*, and the fact |
| 9 | that .tar* is the format preferred for Linux and smaller, is there |
| 10 | a need for that support? |
| 11 | |
| 12 | As the doctext states, I'm open to implementing support for new formats |
| 13 | but I'd rather wait with that till it's needed for anything. Tarballs |
| 14 | are easy to handle, zips are not. |
