A quick notice for anyone who uses cron-like scripts to get
R source tarballs from the ETH R/daily/ s:
I've finally switched to replace *.bz2 by *.xz which does save
quite a bit of bandwidth.
Currently, you can see the 2 day old *.bz2 (and their sizes) and
compare with the new *.xz one (sorted newest first):
