Yeah, removing the tar.Z would be ok with me. It looks like most
projects only keep the last week of nightly builds available for
download. I'll volunteer to make this happen for jakarta-taglibs.

Also reducing the number of formats downloadable in would be useful.
Currently it is available in
tar-compress (.tar.Z)
tar-gzip (.tar.gz)
zip (.zip)
Most modern unixes have gzip so we could probably delete tar-compress. (it
takes up almost double each of the other formats aswell).

Another idea would be to reduce the number of nightlies created by gump.
Currently gump creates 7 nightlies per project. We could reduce this to two
(or three) *successful* builds.

Yep... I noticed. But if we want to have that site mirrored, we should do
something before hands... What about creating a "historic.apache.org", were
older releases are archived, and keeping only the last 2/3 ones on the main
web sites???
