tomcat: 5.0.30beta = link to 5.0.30

I propose the following:

unstable is a link to 0.90
0.90alpha1 is a link to 0.90
current is a link to 0.20.5


Are you talking about the documentation or the download directory now?

When I visit a site with software, I expect the name latest to point
to the latest stable distribution. The latest unstable distribution
could be named something like development, unstable, testing or next.

The file latest/.htaccess points to fop/0.20.5, and I think that is
best.

  Wouldn't latest point to the stable distribution, 0.20.5?

I had a look at some other Apache projects:

cocoon: latest
excalibur:  current
jakarta-struts: current
lucene: current
jakarta-regexp: current
james:  current
logging/log4j:  latest=1.2.12, unstable=1.3alpha7
rivet:  current
tomcat: 5.0.30beta = link to 5.0.30
ws-jaxme:   current

I propose the following:

unstable is a link to 0.90
0.90alpha1 is a link to 0.90
current is a link to 0.20.5

The links appear as directory names on the distribution servers and on
the web site, as Unix soft links or as empty directories with
redirection.
