New description:

 Here is a (new) spkg which contains Jean Michel's "pre-packaged GAP3 with
 everything you need". From his webpage:

   To help people who are just interested in GAP3 because they need a
 package which has not been ported to GAP4, I have prepared an easy-to
 install minimal GAP3 distribution containing an up-to-date versions of the
 packages:

   anusq, arep, autag, chevie, cryst, dce, grim, matrix, meataxe, monoid,
 nq, pcqa, sisyphos, specht, ve, vkcurve.

   These packages have been chosen since most have no equivalent in GAP4.
 They are autoloaded when starting gap.This distribution includes only
 partial lists of small groups, 2-groups, 3-groups, character tables from
 the Atlas and tables of marks. It does not include either the packages:

   anupq, grape, kbmag, xgap, cohomolo, gliss, guava, xmod

   which have some equivalent in GAP4. You can get these extra features at

   http://www.math.rwth-aachen.de/~Frank.Luebeck/gap/GAP3

 Here is a link to the corresponding upstream tarball:

Comment (by saliola):

 Replying to [comment:28 tscrim]:
 > So is that tarball the official release and the one you want mirrored
 once this ticket is merged? If so, then please add it to the ticket
 description. The release manager will add it to the tarball mirror list so
 a user will only have to do `sage -i gap3` once this is merged.

 Thanks, Travis. I'll modify the description.
