Disrupting the originals inhibits verification with others who
possess mailings and should be avoided. Supplementation is fine.

There's this if you don't mind blobs.

RAR is proprietary.
ZIP is not compact.

Assuming Cryptome's working platform is not an opensource Unix,
I'd definitely consider switching to 7z, which works on or is shipped
with Linux/Win/BSD/Mac, is opensource, and produces great
compression ratios. xz is another fine choice. There are probably
prettier GUI's for lzma/lzma2 out there if desired.
