Here's a proposal for tar-balls to offer for download in the future,
in terms of which repos are in there:
bro-a.b.c.tgz
bro.git
binpac.git
bro-aux.git
broccoli-d.e.f.tgz
broccoli.git
broccoli-python.git
broctl-g.h.i.tgz
broctl.git
capstats.git
trace-summary.git
pysubnettree.git
broccoli.git
broccoli-python.git
bro-scripts-<timestamp?>.tgz [1]
bro-scripts.git
bro-all-a.b.c.tgz (using Bro's version number).
All repos (except bro-scripts.git I guess)
When untar'ing, they'd all extract into the directories the super
module lays out for them (which means it doesn't matter whether one
gets broccoli-x.y.z.tgz on top of broctl-x.y.z.tgz).
We could do our binary packages along a similar structure.[2
Thoughts?

[1] I see the main way to distribute these as indvidually via the
web server. However, seems there's nothign wrong with also offering
them all at once for download.
[2] Distributions will want it separeately per repo, but for, e.g.,
an MacOS package, it seems more convinient to have few pieces to
download/install).
