Description

like stuff from: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/tinderbox-builds/

These are in a somewhat saner order but its totally different then the other urls.
Internally this means some biggish changes so we can implement both methods of finding url(s).

This is really only useful internal to mozilla (though I would guess this is where node-firefox-get is used most).

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing URL-finding behavior and comparing it with the Tinderbox layout at ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/tinderbox-builds/. Done means the package can find Firefox package URLs from both the existing URL format and Tinderbox builds; note that the repository is deprecated and the issue has had no recent activity.
