David, Thanks for pointing this out. I have corrected the links for the current release. It is something the release manager should do when uploading the new binaries to source forge. John, I have slightly updated the release process [1] to clarify this step. Can you proof-read it during the next release ? In essence we should tell sourceforge for which platform each binary (or tarball) is intended. From there, SF will automatically generate a direct download link based on the most recent file uploaded for the user's client platform. If we forget to mark the target platforms, SF will fall back to the latest release in which we did mark them. By that same logic we probably should *not* mark the target platforms for *unstable* releases. Unless there is a way to tell sourceforge the difference between stable and unstable releases. I haven't immediately found a way.
