It's not just open source, it's free :-)

It's in http://www.vuntz.net/git/osc-plugins.git/ (in the obs-dissector
plugin -- look at download-upstream-versions). I need to fix the license
(it's LGPL or GPL, instead of what's mentioned in the header).

You also need to take a look at upstream-limits.txt and
upstream-tarballs.txt.

It's in no way openSUSE specific, and the long-term goal I have is to
make this data easily available so everybody can use it (instead of
having everyone run this kind of scripts).

FWIW, it currently output a file with lines like this (format is stupid
and might need a change):

nonfgo:cairo:1.8.0:http://cairographics.org/releases/cairo-1.8.0.tar.gz

(nonfgo is just historical cruft, because I took the format we use
inside the GNOME release team to release GNOME)

I'll probably add the md5sum and/or sha1sum when possible.

If you add more upstream modules, please send me patches :-)

Vincent
