Comment(by jhpalmieri):

 Replying to [comment:40 mpatel]:
 > Using `download_file("../VERSION.txt")` may also work (I've tested this
 only once).

 I would expect it to work from an upgrade path like the one I provided, or
 like the ones provided by release managers for alpha releases.  But if I
 try to download from a URL like
 "http://boxen.math.washington.edu/sage/spkg/../COPYING.txt";, the file is
 not found.  I think the same would be true of VERSION.txt: I don't think
 the top-level directory is available on the official Sage mirrors.
