Maybe one day!
So any chance you would consider putting previous releases into their own
subdirectory?
E.g. current release is
http://mirror.astlinux-project.org/ast13se-firmware-1.x/<board type> or
specific version is
http://mirror.astlinux-project.org/ast13se-firmware-1.x/<board type>/<version>
I wouldn't bother with my own repository if that was the case!

Ahh, OK ... simple enough.
I was thinking you were somehow adding your "special sauce" to the official
images to create custom images, which I did not know how you could do that
without building images yourself.

never had a problem. The main reason for using it was purely to determine the
'Current' release for my systems and the ability to upgrade(or downgrade) to
any version I want by appending the version directory to the repository URL. I
just copy in the upgrade files from the official Astlinux Repository.
