I'm on Windows XP. Using cygwin tar 1.18, I find that I can't untar archiva; I get "A lone zero block at 49260". I've filed it as MRM-671.

I've found the zip version, and I'm going to use it. But I've filed MRM-672 that the zip version should be more visible, because tar isn't very standardized across OSes... Linux tar can easily create archives that Cygwin tar won't extract, Solaris tar can get confused by long file names in GNU tar files, etc.
