[Bob F. <bfr...@si...>]

About a week ago we added a LZMA compressed tarball to the 
GraphicsMagick snapshot distribution formats.  LZMA is supported by 
tools from http://tukaani.org/lzma/.

Today we added a 7-Zip compressed archive of the full Windows source 
package.  7-Zip is supported under Windows via software from 
http://www.7-zip.org/.  The improvement in compression is quite 
impressive, with the 7-Zip archive being about 1/2 the size of the ZIP 
archive.  That is good since the ZIP file is 24MB!  If users are happy 
with 7-Zip we will eventually stop producing ZIP for the Windows 
source package.

As usual, development snapshots may be downloaded from 
"ftp://ftp.graphicsmagick.org/pub/GraphicsMagick/snapshots/".  Please 
let me know about any problems.

Thanks,

Bob
