We were doing them until the day before yesterday. Discussing yesterday, we
decided that it wasn't worth the disk space to have all three of .tar.xz,
.tar.bz2 and .tar.gz.

On my suggestion, we dropped .tar.bz2. We're keeping .tar.gz to ensure maximum
compatibility and .tar.xz because it's the smaller of the three.

I'd rather not bring back .tar.bz2.
