Bug Description

There should be a static URL to get the latest .dsc file for a certain package.

Rationale:
 - Useful for linking to it in e-mails that ask for review.
 - Can be used in scripts.
 - It looks nice.

Example:
 http://revu.tauware.de/dsc/examplepkg (will point to the latest .dsc for package «examplepkg»).

I'll work on this and ping sistpoty on IRC once it's ready.

Revision 179 of my branch ('revu1') implements this and is ready for merging.

At the end the URL is http://revu.tauware.de/dsc.py?package=examplepkg, nice URL's weren't as easy as I thought.

I guess you should force the content-type to text/plain (see diff.py), others than that, it looks quite good!
Even comments in common.py, cool!

Added :).

Sadly dget doesn't accept the URL (that's why I added the &url option, to still make this useful for scripts), but I've reported a bug related to this to the devscripts developer (Debian #466605) and will try to workaround this once they fix dget.

merged into trunk, not yet in production. I also readded the doc-string for details.py (index-function).

This is now available in REVU. As already said, the implementation isn't really ideal yet and should be revised later (lets wait some time to see if Debian answers), but at least the feature is now there.

For example, a script could now request the URL to kdesudo-kde4's latest .dsc file from: http://revu.tauware.de/dsc.py?package=kdesudo-kde4&url, or directly access it with the non-dget'able URL http://revu.tauware.de/dsc.py?package=kdesudo-kde4.
