I think it's a good and widely used practice.

Not really on my own ;-)
Since the mapred merged into trunk isn't a release, the last release is
0.7.1 (so the web site is 0.7.1)
When the mapred becomes a release (ie 0.8), the last release is 0.8 (web
site should be 0.7.1)
Finally if a 0.7.2 maintenance release is needed, the last release is still
the 0.8 (so the web site should be 0.8)
Does it make sense?
