Hi Dave,

Do you mean all of the newer source tarballs will be on github permanently in the future? If no I'd suggeust leaving links for some critical releases at least, since sometimes people need a certain release (e.g. applying patch on that release).

Thanks,
Paul

The crash sources found on http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=307
take the upstream tarball from http://people.redhat.com/anderson, and may *possibly*
apply additional patches.  However, in the case of crash-7.0.1-2.fc20, no additional
patches were applied to the upstream version.

Until I recently started the github repository, old upstream tarballs/rpms were not
saved anywhere except for those found in the Fedora repository.  And the Fedora releases
do not necessarily track all upstream releases.  If you really need a particular version,
I can reproduce it from the in-house CVS repository.

Dave
