As from May 25 (once GNOME 3.0.2 stable has been released), new tarballs
on ftp.gnome.org will be uploaded as:
- .tar.xz
- .tar.bz2
Meaning: no more .tar.gz for *new* uploads.
As from Nov 16 (or whenever the last GNOME 3.2.x stable is released),
new tarballs on ftp.gnome.org will be uploaded in .tar.xz only.
There won't be any re-compression effort, nor will any files be deleted.
Meaning: if some file is currently available in e.g. tar.gz it will
still be available. The change only concerns *new* tarball uploads.
