Just the .zip file? Or the 24.0.50 folder contained in it? 

I agree that we should identify the weekly trunk snapshot Sean builds
with a bzr revision id. However, this should be an automated process
executed when running `make dist' and not some manual (error-prone)
renaming.

Once I finish the Python cleanup I am working on right now, I want to
try to extend the `make dist' rule to incorporate this.

The sole purpose of this would be to tie the weekly Windows snapshot to
a revision in bzr for troubleshooting. Since the bzr revision is not
unique across branches it is not very useful for general Emacs builds
unless one can be sure the source of the build is the trunk. 

I will think more about this, maybe there is a solution that works for
all builds on all systems.
