No, it needs to be programmatic -- ie. scriptable on the command line.  Better
yet, you'll just do it and put it somewhere like below.

What Ben's asking is for you to roll src zips when you cut releases.  So if you
were to create release 2.5 or something, you'd do whatever you do now (tag CVS,
etc.) *plus* you'd run some ant task to plop a src zip somewhere that can be
used directly by this RPM and by the Debian guys.

If this is possible -- and I think it is -- I'd prefer it to the "here's how we
generated this source tarball" current situation.
