Is there any chance of reactivating the nightly tarball generation that was once in place ?
What's wrong with http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cvstarballs/python-cvsroot.tar.gz ? Regards, Martin

I didn't realize that SF does this automagically. Could someone please redirect the link on the python.org cvs page to the above address (David Ascher's tarball generation stopped in February 2000 !). Thanks for the hint, Martin. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg ______________________________________________________________________ Company: http://www.egenix.com/ Consulting: http://www.lemburg.com/ Python Pages: http://www.lemburg.com/python/

Did you want a "snapshot" or a copy of the repository? What SF produces is a tarball of the repository, not a snapshot. We still need to do something to create snapshots. -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at acm.org> PythonLabs at Digital Creations

I meant a copy of what you get when you check out the Python CVS tree wrapped into a .tar.gz file. The size of the above archive (16MB) suggests that a lot more is going into the .tar.gz file. A .tar.gz of the CVS checkout is around 4MB in size. Looks like we still need to do something after all ;) -- Marc-Andre Lemburg ______________________________________________________________________ Company: http://www.egenix.com/ Consulting: http://www.lemburg.com/ Python Pages: http://www.lemburg.com/python/
