Yes (and a bit metainfo like of which revision this is a snapshot). It is
pretty much what you get by using "hg archive".

Depends of the cws and the compression algorithm. Bzip2-Tarball of DEV300:
ca. 400MB

Please also note that these downloads are not there "intentionally" - I
guess this is just how the multirepo webinterface of hg looks like by
default. So I wouldnt count on these links being there after the pilot (although
they might as well be).

Guessing from the subject of your mail, I think you want a tarball of the
repo with history. The most efficient way to get something like that would
be a "hg bundle". That would be a 730MB download for DEV300 as of now. We
probably will have such a bundle available after the pilot (ask Heiner).
As of now, you will need to "hg clone" from
  http://hg.services.openoffice.org/hg/DEV300
if you do not have the repo somewhere locally (takes between 4000-7000 sec,
so better do that overnight). Keep in mind that this download is needed only
once per dev/dev lab/location.

Have Fun,

Bjoern
