It should be okay to tar and bzip2 (or 7zip if that floats your boat)
- as long as there is a FreeBSD archiver port, it'll be fine. =)
As for the number of dumps, I think it'd be smoothest if we just have
one dump file. That'll reduce some of the moving pieces when the dump
is loaded as there won't be any ordering issues or whatnot when
loading it up into the main repository.
Based upon the feedback on general@, when you are ready, I'd suggest
copying the dumps into your public_html homedir on people.a.o and
annotating the JIRA with the URL and the SHA1 checksum ("openssl sha1
<dumpfile>").
I haven't yet been able to talk to the Infra team about when we can
schedule the loads - they're doing some conversions of the repository
to an LDAP authz system, so it might take until next week to do the
loads as that is inevitably gonna blow up in everyone's face. =P --
