I guess the biggest reason would be people who can't access CVS because they're
behind firewalls. That's my situation at work; however, I have the luxury of a
broadband connection from home, so this doesn't affect me, specifically. I'd
still like to see the windows source tarballs, though. Personally, I don't care
about patchkits.

It did. The problem was elsewhere.

Is there demand for a non-CVS sourcekit specifically for Windows? If
so, are just tarballs OK (trivial) or do people want patchkits
(requires fixing my build script), too? Followups set to me.
