Within the last few days (since the logs rotated on Sep 13), there have been 1095 accesses to Python-2.3.4.tar.bz2, and 5168 to Python-2.3.4.tgz.

so given the "we'll save 5 minutes for each release, and users stuck with gzip only loses 5 minutes each" rationale, I assume this means that some- one's planning to make 314400 Python releases over the next year?
