Most of the source distribution packages of ZTK are in .tar.gz format. But there are few exceptions. For consistency, can we use .tar.gz format for all releases ? Why does anyone care? They both work the same on all platforms...
Others has already raised their concern against .tar.gz as it is not working in Python 2.4
It doesn't affect the huge majority of pacakges we produce. For any package it does affect, we use zip, sure.
And bz2 module might be missing for many Python installations. (BTW, We don't have any bz2 source packages released)
That still doesn't require consitency: we just need to test that the packages we make can be installed on all supported platforms.
