[jira] Created: (QPID-1876) Include .zip file in the C++ source release artifacts

Include .zip file in the C++ source release artifacts
-----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: QPID-1876
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-1876
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Build Tools
    Affects Versions: 0.5
            Reporter: Steve Huston
            Priority: Minor


The current C++ source artifact in releases is a .tar.gz file. Windows users often need to install a separate utility to read the tar file; zip files are natively accessible. Thus, for many Windows users, a .zip file is more accessible than is a .tar.gz file. If both .tar.gz and .zip files can be produced during the C++ source release process it would make Qpid C++ more approachable.
