This version has the same features as the last one, but fixes a subtle bug in writing GZip
compressed Sitemap files. The old version stored more path information than it needed to when it
created GZip files, and this was a point of concern for some webmasters.
The bug was found, and the bugfix suggested, by members of the
Sitemaps community.
Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
