No need to tell me about that, I had to buy new hardware to build the Debian package in more acceptable time frames than the more than 8 hours it used to.

I have the feed in my calendar, why do you think I'm asking about missing downloads on release day?

Does this mean the release process was changed? Because it didn't used to take this long for the source tarballs to become available on the website before the recent redesign.

The previous redesign required using a query string in the URL to bypass the caching, do we need to do something similar for the new site?
