[Dspace-general] Re: [Dspace-devel] Uploading of data which is not MIME Compatible?

[MacKenzie Smith]

Hi Dhaval,

I'm not sure where you looked that up, since the DSpace internal file 
format registry ships with
all formats listed as "unsupported" and you're supposed to decide for 
yourself which ones your
organization chooses to "support" (meaning provide long-term preservation 
for access).
If tar or gz are missing and you want them, just add them.
