Why not ? > Is tar.gz the best format > for compression? No. Best format for compression can be .rar (3.0) or .ace and less widely used format (some use a fixed dedicated size of RAM to compress/decompress). > Is tar.gz the best format for distribution? > tar.gz are mostly for unix users so I do not see any issue with that. People that are not able to uncompress a .tag.gz are problably not able to code, so they don't need the source archive. I don't care that winzip does not support it (even if I'm very surprised). I don't plan to encourage people to use non-free software which are not enable to do their simple job.
