[00:09] <rlameiro> downloading alpha 3 now
[00:10] <rlameiro> going to test it on my new 500gb 7200 rpm disk
[07:32] <persia> ScottL: The main reason to download the source with e.g. `apt-get --download-only source ${PACKAGE}` is to make sure you have the correct original tarball artifact.  The order between this and bzr branch matters not at all.  Some work has been done to use pristine-tar to make this no longer required : I'm not sure of the current status of that work.
