1. For now we add bz2 compression, and put that at the top of the list, with gz far below it. If we want to get real fancy we could even put it behind another link "old formats".
At this point, we've been providing bzip2-compressed tarballs for three years; they became available with Python 1.6 (does anyone even remember that release?).
