Now I'm still a bit confused, but stuff going onto the main repo
usually gets packaged as a rock:

http://www.luarocks.org/en/Types_of_rocks

So that is a snapshot of the source at the point of uploading to the
repo? Fabio or Hisham, like to comment?

It would be cool BTW if there was a mirror for the main repo, living
somewhere central like Europe. Should not be too difficult to keep in
sync ('dumb store'), but it does involve some commitment and
sponsorship...
