Who do I contact regarding the source snapshot found at:

 http://nightly.webkit.org/files/WebKit-SVN-source.tar.bz2

Try using <http://live.nightly.webkit.org/files/WebKit-SVN-source.tar.bz2 >.

The website reports that this file is updated every six hours. It appears
that the process that places this file does so by copying over the
existing file (instead of something more atomic like a file rename). This causes problems while downloading the file while it is being overwritten
(the file size is under-reported).

Nope, that doesn't happen. The tarball is created separately and then renamed into place. I think the problem is likely to be the caching proxy server which is at nightly.webkit.org choking on the 180MB file. I've updated the links to point directly at the web server for this large file so hopefully this problem will disappear.

Kind regards,

Mark Rowe
