Hi folks,

Does anyone have any experience with apache configuration, particularly
mime types and handling browser quirks and would like to help us with an
issue we have on hackage?

http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/498

The problem is described in the ticket but basically IE6 gets confused
by the Content-Type and Content-Encoding and ends up saving ".tar.gz"
files with the wrong name ".tar.tar".

We need help working out how to configure apache to use a workaround and
with testing that the solution actually works.

Thanks!

Duncan
