There are more issues with distribution archives (e.g. they contain unwanted files and directories like modules Maven target directories and their content).
All of this IMO is minor, including issue with unpacking source tar.gz archive (there are 3 more source archives in release out of which at least zip archives can be unpacked, and there is tag in svn too), so these issues can be solved in next release.
