We do that, except that we have current as an alias to the 2.0b1
directory at the moment.

That way we don't constantly have to change the install instructions.

I was thinking about this last night and perhaps what we need is to

1) include the latest setuptools in our index
2) create a /development index that's got the eggs needed to run the dev version

Ideally the /dev version would be automatically updated whenever the
automated tests pass on buildbot.
