Open Source links

It is quite awkward to find a conventional tarball of the source for RPM (the Redhat Package Manager). Searching for RPM tends to find RPM package of things other than RPM itself. The main RPM web site does not seen to have the source available as a tarball. It is available as an RPM (duh!) and by anonymous CVS. However, RPM being available as an RPM can be a circular problem in some environments, and anonymous CVS access is often prohibited from corporate locations due to firewalls and the fact that CVS does not have a proxy facility (yet). Hence, I have made a compressed tarball of RPM source available. It was obtained via anonymous CVS on 26th March 2006.
