As the PDF manuals should be coming back really soon now, I'm thinking
about compressing them, because the file size is is quite big (approx. 11M
per language). What do you think, should they be offered as .gz, .bz2 and
.zip versions like the HTML version (in many files), or would .gz suffice?
AFAIK some of the newer zip programs for Windows do handle .gz. But then,
.bz2 compression is the best one. See directory listing.
