I was thinking about Linux here, i686/amd64. I don't have a Mac so can't
contribute much there. I do have a couple arm devices on the way for
testing, just for playing around with WSPR command line modes and things
which doesn't need / use Kvasd./

I can't diff two binaries and understand the differences, so for me, it'
doesn't really matter where they go, as long as we can get a version
number out of it somehow and the URLS to them don't move around allot.

Having everything atomic is ok, but has it's one set of problems too.

For me, it's 6 of one, half dozen for the other. I'm ok with it either way.

I use keys for Debian (like 10+ sites), Launchpad, Ubuntu ( loads of
them),  SF .. pretty much everything I can. But, was just throwing that
out there for those that may not know, as it's not always immediately
obvious.
