We're now publishing the DEPS for release candidate builds. See
http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/releases/3.0.195.27/
http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/releases/4.0.222.1/

The DEPS file should be good enough to build the release, though I found I
had to manually set GYP_DEFINES="branding=Chromium" to get gyp to run on the
above release.

Soon, we'll also be publishing the src directory so you can browse it.
There's a bug in the current publishing script that I have a fix for.
