HA! I *love* that movie -- and the book is abso-stinkin' hilarious!
On the actual topic, I've changed my mind. I thought that using a
unique extension to indicate that *our* .tar.bz2 file (.cyg) followed
some special internal format (/etc/postinstall, <top>/CYGWIN-PATCHES/,
etc) would be a good idea.
Then i realized that I've been using setup.exe (with a custom setup.ini)
to install custom tarballs -- that don't follow that special format --
into my cygwin for months now.
Nope, keep it .tar.bz2, if you don't mind. :-)
