Thanks, Julian.
Josh, do you feel that tar.gz is a good choice?
If there is consensus for tar.gz, I will update the script and release
instructions for avatica-go, so that we only release a tar.gz for the
next release.

Personally, creating the zip isn't onerous for avatica-go because we are
automating it via the release script. Having said that, the `zip`
command isn't as nice as the `tar` command in terms of options and
customization. I assume that something similar is also in place for
calcite and avatica
I think tar.gz or tar.xz are both good options and see them fairly
equally (not sure if maven-assembly-plugin supports xz, but would be
surprised if it didn't). bz2 is just "slow" in my mind, but I suppose
we're not really producing very large artifacts so it wouldn't be a pain.
I am good
We should talk about this. For Calcite and Avatica, we have to produce .tar.gz
and .zip because we always have.
But how about producing just one archive, in a more modern format, say .tar.bz2
or .tar.xz? Most people have those compressors installed. It makes the release
process more
