Well, I've managed to download files straight from ftp.ximian.com,
inside the /pub tree, there's an evolution snapshot directory.

I've had my own problems with RC, so have resorted to the manual
approach a couple of times.

I think RC needs a lot of tweaking before it's a reliable app!
My main need from RC is for it to FIRST check the local redcarpet
directory for RPM files before it decides to spend ages downloading the
files over my 56k modem!  That would get around lots of circumstances I
can think of!
