The same issues I have as packager apply to the user. He has to fiddle around as well when name constantly changes (e.g. in download scripts). > It is actually nice to have the version number in the file name.

Everybody can collect old versions by simply renaming them himself and also download them from server. We have lots of way to check for new software. Everything said here only makes it more complicated. >> BTW: You can download the snapshot files which include version. > > So it is all set up? Then we just need to link to it. :) Well actually this is the way it works. We have snapshots including version and soft-links called latest and tested, which link to a certain version. Why should I introduce another name including a version? We already have these.
