Would you consider releasing your modules using a version-named
tarball? This would help the work of those redistributing the modules.

Also, would you consider releasing your modules on LuaRocks? It's
really easy (easier than keeping track of compilation flags for
various OSes and architectures yourself) and I'm sure many people
would appreciate it!

Thank you!
