@pcahyna my personal feeling is that currently we are too near the ReaR 2.8 release so that I feel rather uncomfortable with changing what "make dist OFFICIAL=1" does ONLY because...

@pcahyna I agree that having a gzipped archive in our source tree is bad but I don't agree to get rid of that functionality where a user could add a...
