    Easy solution: install ubuntu in a vm and share a directory.
    Extract the bzip in ubuntu and then the contents are available in
    windows.

        I was a bit supprised to see that the official download of
        OC5 is in TAR BZIP format since Owncloud has always tried to
        keep a low level of entry for new deployments.
        This means an extra obstacle for many people running windows,
        (mac also?)
        If the download was in zip this obstacle would not be present.
        The compression ratio is a little lower.
        not compressed=43,7 MB
        Tar.bz=13,2 MB
        Zip=17,8 MB

        I think tar.bz <http://tar.bz> gives some head aches to some
        people that we can avoid by using zip.

        Just a heads up.
