Hi Justin, 

The equivalent data is available from the apt-get source or directly from packages.ros.org in the browser (for example geometry can be found in the new system at: http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu/pool/main/r/ros-groovy-geometry/ ) 

For older versions you can pull it from the git buildpackage repositories listed in the new rosdistro files: https://github.com/ros/rosdistro/blob/master/releases/fuerte.yaml  We are using the git-buildpackge infrastructure.  

From your email I'm assuming you're thinking of packaging for gentoo.  The new system has been restructured to be more cleanly abstract packaging.  And the release tool, bloom, has been designed to be extendable for platforms other than debian ones.  If you'd like to start a discussion about how to do that I suggest that you move it over to the buildsystem sig mailing list.  http://www.ros.org/wiki/groovy/Planning/Buildsystem

For electric and earlier I used to be able to download source tarballs from
https://code.ros.org/svn/release/download/stacks/.  I just started to look at
packaging up Fuerte and I'm not seeing any of the newer releases in the same
location.  A quick google turns up nothing.

So, are these available somewhere, and if not, can they be made available?

Thanks,
