I'll second that idea, it could work like the winex spell, which
uses CVS to download the sourceat every build.

Mind you something like this should have a warning AKA the
z-rejected spells, saying this is untested CVS code and may not
build do not file bug reports on this spell etc. etc. etc.

Why not have a mozilla-cvs spell in z-rejected (unstable
release may break other spells) and install it in /opt/mozilla-cvs
so someone look at becoming a mozilla delevoper can have a working
mozilla (or galeon :)) and can also experiment with the bleeding
edge.

I'd be willing to write and maintain this spell if it can work like
this.

Cheers

Joel
