   It cannot be taken apart and looked at. Or rather, when I do, I get to 
https://archive.apache.org/dist/arrow/arrow-10.0.0/, which actually looks way 
more useful that an url that's dynamically constructed (which is harder for the 
bots, harder for reproducibility -- even if you promise it --, etc.).
   
   I don't speak for the other packaging systems, but I will always prefer 
source urls that are as simple possible (i.e. non-magical, not dynamically 
constructed...), and so I'd always take 
`https://github.com/apache/arrow/archive/refs/tags/apache-arrow-{{ version 
}}.tar.gz` or `https://archive.apache.org/dist/arrow/arrow-{{ version 
}}/apache-arrow-{{ version }}.tar.gz` over 
https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua?action=download&filename=arrow/arrow-11.0.0/apache-arrow-11.0.0.tar.gz
