[...] Could you please put the information in parent post somewhere in Documentation, for example Documentation/technical/pack-format.txt (perhaps together with putting description of packing heuristic from http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git&m=114134881923320 by Jon Loeliger in Documentation/technical/pack-heuristics.txt even if it doesn't conform to "serious documentation" standards)?

Thanks in advance
