Now, the questions that come up are:
i) Does this sound reasonable to everyone? In particular, is there any
loss in losing the "original" compressed files?
ii) Assuming a yes on the previous question, what time frame would it
make sense for this changeover to happen over?
I'm fine with this, and my personal feeling on time is the sooner
the better.
It's pretty hard to find a Linux system without bzip2 these days.
