Hi Patrick,

Why not use bzip2 for the tarball @ 
<http://www.pmichaud.com/pub/pmwiki/> instead of gzip.  You will 
consistently get smaller resulting files.

$ ls -l
total 416

You already provide .zip for the faint of heart.

It is likely a good idea to provide md5sum files to check the file 
integrity?

Cheers,
Lloyd
