make PKGBUILDs available from archlinux.org/packages/ ?

i was just looking to get the "official" PKGBUILD for flashplugin in order to make my own to try out the new 10.2 beta; and looking for it, i stumbled upon package information pages. now, they're great, but i figured, wouldn't it make sense to make the PKGBUILD file available for download along with the rest of the information ?

for that exists abs.

pacman -S abs && abs

or you can download specific builds abs core/kernel26

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

If you click through to SVN Entries, under "Package Actions" in the top right, you can grab the PKGBUILD

Plus there's nothing innovative that could possibly happen in a flashplugin PKGBUILD. libflashplayer.so goes in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, end of story.

Great things come in tar.xz packages.
