I'm happy to be able to announce the release of Xapian 1.2.17, which
you can download from:
http://xapian.org/download
We've switched to compressing tarballs with xz instead of gzip, as it
provides much better compression, without being too slow to decompress.
(For now at least, Search::Xapian is still gzipped.)
We decided not to provide multiple formats for the downloads. The size
reduction provided by xz is greater than the size of the xz source code
download, so installing it doesn't seem an onerous requirement.
The wiki has a summary of the most notable changes:

A big thankyou to the following people for helping to make this release
happen: Richard Boulton, Tom Mortimer, James Aylett, Sergei Golovan,
Dagobert Michelsen, Tae Won Ha, "static-void", "vHanda", "boomboo",
and Frank J Bruzzaniti. I'm sure I will have managed to miss at someone
out, so an extra big thanks to you.
As always, if you encounter problems, please report them here, or to
the bug-tracker: http://xapian.org/bugs
