I'm not going to clone a git repo to read a file, but I did waste some time clicking around your site trying to find this file that you mentioned, to no avail.

  yeah, as far as i know, it's only available by git cloning. it doesn't benefit me if you read it, just you, so it's fine with me if you don't read it. i'm only mentioning it for the sake of the people who would find it interesting i mean, in theory, you could do this in Python >>> print(zlib.decompress(urlopen( 'http://canonical.org/~kragen/sw/pavnotes2.git/objects/03/220089fdc6713fc459ac71da35d6c8abb5b110' ).read()).decode('utf-8')) but it's easier to just clone the repo reading the file is going to take you an hour or two, so if spending an extra thirty seconds to clone the repo is a significant cost in this context, you probably shouldn't start

    OK - I wont bother. Just letting you know, as you were downvoted a bunch when I commented.
