It seems the person dealing with the bug has not understood the procedure we are using at the moment. Packages are indeed released via the SF file release system. The forum is used as a way for package maintainers to send the packages to the site maintainers so that they can then upload them to the FRS. Also the GZIP FAQ item the SF guy refers to: http://www.gzip.org/#faq8 seems hardly relevant to me in this case.
