Indeed, hydra seems to be generating tarballs on each commit that takes place on the emacs repository. Thats amazing! I couldn't help noticing though that the files in the tarball that haven't been touched by the latest commit (or something close to that) are dated Jan 1 1970. This seems to be the solution closer to what i would like to be using so far. The only issue i have with all of the presented ones (thanks for making them BTW) is that none of them is official. As recent history with the git repo has taught us, they might not be reliable in the long run. In fact the git repository at savannah, which i dont know if it can be considered more official than the others at repo.or.cz and github, is still stalled since April 1st. I think i'll be using hydra, at least for now. Thank you ---- Greg
