        Sure, -but- git since it stores -all- history for all time, is a real
issue. If you checkin and delete a 10Mb compressed tar-ball, and then
delete it, then you add 10Mb to the git pull size forever - so, I would
prefer to keep the repo size small, even if it means we have to (for one
release) have a larger source archive.

        Odd; did you run 'download' in the top-level to fetch them ?
