Question, any plans to add the tarball here?
https://download.enlightenment.org/rel/apps/edi/

Or is github the new place for edi releases?

Also switching from gz to xz.

I personally like aspects of github releases. Maybe do that there and
mirror/copy over to older spot.

Either way may also want to update
https://www.enlightenment.org/download

Being consistent with releases is VERY important to downstream
packagers. I had this setup with an e.eclass for re-use of
enlightenment URLs etc. Which I can switch over to github no problem
there. But then it also causes issue with the 0.6.0 being tar.gz and
0.6.1 tar.xz. Making it so I have to add conditionals for versions.

Really not friendly to packagers. Changing URL, changing available
formats, etc. Consistency is key there, please!!! Thank you!!!
