That's... well, it's a long story, perhaps we'll tell it over beers at
GUADEC. Me screaming 'oh shit' at 2am just won't have the proper comic
value if told over email.

So, anyway, the source rpms will be available on ftp and mirrors some
time later this week, after the bandwidth insanity dies down. It was
definitely an oversight/failure on our part, not some paranoid
conspiracy. 

In the meantime, most patches (not all, again because of technical
failures/oversights, not conspiracy) should be available in a much more
useful form at http://patches.ximian.com/

Thanks to everyone who has worked on GNOME over the past couple of
years- we definitely could not do this without all of you.

Luis
