CNAME record to make sa-update work with new version number 4.0.2 that
is in svn trunk has been added.
sa-update for trunk should now work again.
I have updated the checklist for release managers to have the update of
the CNAME record be requested at the start of the 72 hour vote period
for a full release so that sa-update will continue to work when the
version number gets bumped up after the vote passes.
Benny, re-reading your email, I see that is not the issue you are
bringing up... The downloads directory includes the rules files snapshot
as they were at the time of the release build, which can be used by
people who don't want to or can't run sa-update after installation. Of
course, people should be running sa-update or doing something equivalent
to keep their rules up to date. The snapshot rules file is there for
anyone who needs it at the time of installation if running sa-update
then is not feasible.
