Why not flip the directory structure around and handle it similar to what we do with the portage snapshots on the mirror? At each architecture directory, have one "iso" and one "stage3" or "stages" directory, and put the autobuilds in there. Their filenames make them easy to sort and we can have one "latest" symlink for each set of files. Robert
