I have two small comments: 1) It would definitively be nice to get the download links together with such an announcement, so it is not necessary to look them up at an other place. For example just like this: https://sourceforge.net/projects/gphoto/files/gphoto/2.5.26/ https://sourceforge.net/projects/gphoto/files/libgphoto/2.5.26/ 2) Regarding the source code packages I have the suggestion to provide them as "xz" files as well as those are smaller than bz2 files and meanwhile more common for building distibution packages. To implement this it is only necessary to apply a small change (add "dist-xz") to the respective "configure.ac" file: E.g. instead of: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([-Wall -Werror gnu 1.9 dist-bzip2 check-news]) Just: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([-Wall -Werror gnu 1.9 dist-bzip2 dist-xz check-news]) A "make dist" will then build the respective "xz" files as well.

I can do that too. Should I keep doing .gz files? Ciao, Marcus ___ Gphoto-devel mailing list Gphoto-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gphoto-devel
