Why? Officially, Java "deprecated" the zip extension in 1.1 or something.

But Eric: One more major thing: You _got_ to have a directory prepended!!!
I nearly expanded the tarball in my /usr/java, but thankfully I did
actually a "t" first. And I got _scared_, man!

Please, prepend the stash with a webmacro-1.1b2/-directory. That is,
_with_ the version. Look to Jakarta, that jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12 prepended
directory is actually pretty OK. And then you of course make a symlink,
tomcat4->jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12, so that you don't have to change your
387953 startupscripts when 4.1.13 comes out.

And indeed, I'd like the jars to be version-named too. This so that I
really easily can see which version of some jar I'm using. I always rename
the jar, so why can't it just be named such from the beginning? Use
symlinks on _OS_'es.. ;)
