Severity: wishlist

Hi,

it would be very, very nice to have snapshot.do provide an automatic
generation of a sources.list file, e.g.

I would be able to select a certain date (text line or drop down
menus) and then be shown which snapshots are available on that
date. Say, I wanted to have all snapshots shown from December 24th,
2009 UTC and it would present me these:

debian:
2009-12-24 03:43:05
2009-12-24 09:37:37
2009-12-24 15:51:09
2009-12-24 21:26:35

debian-security:
2009-12-24 12:54:52
2009-12-24 14:20:21

For each subsection a radio button would be available which I could
select and upon selection, a custom sources.list would be generated
for me, so that I can simple copy&paste it into my personal
sources.list instead of manually creating this - yes, I'm lazy ;)

Thanks a lot

Cheers

Carsten

And hence I'll close this bug.
