Before there was only a common and a platform specific tarball. Does it imply to supply *.rpm in the future? It was always nice to just untar SGE and run it as a normal user w/o any root privilege (yes, rpm2cpio could do). And it was one tarball for all Linux variants. I would vote for staying with this.
