I presume kernel.org knows this. Why doesn't people use e.g.: XZ?
This is the same as in PDF's. DJVU files could be amazing too. They could compress [convert] a 400 MByte PDF to a 20 MByte DJVU. Amazing.
Why don't these technologies spread??
most have no idea about that. do you know the level of compression used in .7z?
