Compressing the ePub version of Python docs is a mistake
http://docs.python.org/3/download.html makes available ePub versions of
Python docs as a .zip or a .tar.bz2 file.
Take a standard out of the box iPad and try do download and read either of
these files.
iOS by default does not know how to decompress these file formats so you
can not read the Python docs that you have just downloaded.
There are plenty of workarounds but none of them are nearly as cool as
reading Python docs.
