Hi. For building packages for linux distributions, it would be good to be able to get downloads from the mercurial repository at http://hg.netbeans.org. If you're willing, then it's possible to enable this using the details at http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/TipsAndTricks#Create_links_to_snapshots_of_files_and_tarballs This would enable links to specific upstream tarballs as required.
Has any thought been given to this feature request?
