Test DbIndex? with sqla 0.5 (and get it working if it does not work).

Cost: ??

Priority: low because DbIndex? is not currently that important to us (also wonder whether we should try using CKAN code here to stop us reinventing the wheel).

1. Given a url download from that url to disk
2. Given a package use download url to download to disk

Once on disk should uncompress (if necessary).

Details

• Should download either to tmp directory (defaulted in config) or a specified path on disk
• In download would like to support as many types of target urls as possible:
  1. Single files (usually compressed filesets but could be individual files)
  2. Index pages listing files to download
  3. Revision control repositories
  4. ...

This will obviously be a significant amount of work. Suggest:

1. Start off just supporting the first option.
2. Have something like a plugin system to handle new target types
3. Reuse existing work (e.g. easy_install and pip handle standard vcs such as svn, hg, git etc)
