hi,
the manual builds are only provided as bz2 and I know the discussion
about :-(. It was decided also to provide tar.gz with the argument,
that most windows users can handle .tar.gz (common tools like winzip,
et.al).
Therefore it would be nice to provide the binary builds as .zip and
tar.gz

Most windows users are not acquinted with .tar.gz or .tar.bz2, so .zip
is just fine.

hi,
it would be nice if you could also offer tar.bz2 or/and tar.gz packages
of the (main) windows releases of PHP. Currently "only" .zip is
offered, but better compression would help anyone :-)
