Hi Stephan,
I think "underhanded" is a little harsh and I'm not sure John Resig, who is the one who put that up there, was attempting to do anything wrong.
Also, we're not trying to be "marketing people" as you so incorrectly described the folks on this project. We're trying to provide the community with various options for using the jQuery library, especially in terms of performance and file size. That's why the link, which describes how to use gzipped files, was added next to the download.
Considering how involved you are on the list and knowing how much effort everyone on the project puts into the jQuery, I'm a little disappointed that you would make such remarks.

This is correct. The webmaster/developers/whoever chose to be a bit underhanded there and say it's 14k "with gzip", but fail to mention that the user must arrange for the code to get gzipped. Shame on them. They've metamorphed from programmers to marketing people.
