Very cool !

A couple of ideas:
- in the application list, only show the last versions (e.g. right now
Gorm is shown 3 times for example)
- in the application detail page, show all screenshots independantly
of their version number
- instead of separate pages per version, maybe a single page per app ?
with the possibility to add a release note per version, to detail the
changes
