Hi,

There is no really big difference. The main one is that instead of
having c/c--b/c--b--v/, you have only c--b--v/ in the directory
structure, which reduces the probability to hid the max filename
length (this is indeed a keypoint if your archive is hosted on a
windows server, while you probably don't mind if your archive is on a
unix server).
Besides, my understanding was that the ultimate goal was to remove the
obligation to use a `c--b--v' name space, and that this archive format
change was one step in this direction. Is this correct?
