Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-13266:
------------------------------------
If we start building w/ JDK 7, we will at least ensure that all clients can unpack our
stuff:
{quote}Previously, the pack200 tool defaulted to using java6 packfiles in the absence of
any java6 (or newer) classfiles in a segment. Starting with JDK 7, the pack200 tool
defaults to using java5 packfiles for maximum compatibility.{quote}

And with everyone being forced to move to JRE7, this should probably be fine:

Use pack200 to speed up download and install

Reporter: Mickael Istria
Assignee: Mickael Istria
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 4.0.1.Final, 4.1.0.Alpha1
p2 provides the pack200 stuff, which offers a better compressions for jars, and then that
makes downloads faster when installing.
We should set up our repo to create the pack200'd artifacts.
