Hi There,
This is only a suggestion nothing more.
I am a big fan of the RAR Archiver and I only want to say that the
php-4.0.5-win32 distrubution
is about 1 MB smaller with RAR, instead of ZIP.
I think RAR is the second common Archive Type in the win32 world, then comes
WinACE with
a small better rate as RAR. (IMHO)
Ok here the Size: Your ZIP: 4.700.101 MB Same packed with RAR 2.80 :
3.850.775 MB
I think, you can save a lot of traffic costs and download time for your fans
if you also use RAR
for a alternativ distribution-download. Or not?
OK, well. Go on keep good work on PHP : I Love it!
