Hi everyone,

This relates to this issue:

https://github.com/pjfanning/sbt-source-dist/issues/24

The source distributions are an important part of the ASF release process.

Most Incubator projects just produce tgz files (also commonly named as
.tar.gz files). While producing zip files also may be convenient for
some users, it increases the complexity of our release and this can
lead to issues where the tgz and zip have slightly different contents.

I have noted such an issue in our recent HTTP release candidate. The
Pekko HTTP repo has a test directory that has non-ASCII chars in its
dir name. This is deliberate. The test that uses the directory is
testing that directories used in File Resources can have non-ASCII
UTF-8 chars. The tgz archive handles the dir name ok but the zip does
not.

Is it ok to stop producing the zip archives and just produce the tgz archives?

Regards,
PJ
