Hi I wrote Homebrew, and this is one of my goals, I've always wanted installing from source on Linux to get package management too. I do a lot of cross platform dev, and would also love for this to work on Windows. But that may be too lofty a goal.

I also added the feature where you can specify a git:// or svn:// protocol for a formula so you can easily keep up with HEAD development for your favourite project.
