I always bcrypt the compressed extension files as requested and they have never had a problem

No one tolt it is causing a problem. It is just causing unnecessary additional work on both ends. I have never used bcrypt in my life. During years I sent many extensions, never had any problem dute to lack of enncryption.

It is easy. Send it unancrypted. If there is a problem with file types, Google will send you an error report. Than you can correct your submission.

Anything that makes it easier for us newbies to become downstream maintainers is good thing!

I am sure coreplayer2 does not follow my advice, but I suspect he has, like me, been following the wiki. If the wiki is wrong or more correctly,
no longer relevant in the make BFE section, lets change it.

We need more maintainers to share the load, but I am reluctant to change the wiki without gutmensch being aware of it. Maybe you could pm him?
I have made some mistakes and can't afford to annoy him more than necessary, otherwise I would have done this myself.

thanks for reading and what ever your decision is.
