I think it is entirely acceptable to ask interested parties (MyFaces users) to go grab source code for the distributions from svn. It's not too much to ask.
But, this contradicts the notice posted on the Source Code Repository info page (http://apache.org/dev/version-control.html): "If you are looking for a stable release of the source code, you should download it from the distribution directory. The Subversion repository should only be used if you want to be on the bleeding-edge of the development effort." If I didn't happen to subscribe to this list yesterday, I would have assumed that the 1.1.3 release would include a source distribution. Not complaining, just stating.
