Hi Duarte,

You've spotted something odd with the gzipped archives which I hadn't 
noticed: they're compressed twice, at least if you download them trhough 
Firefox and Crhome. How very odd, I'll put in a support ticket to our 
systems folk. If you want to get at the text of the mailing list, 
uncompress them twice.

Dan.
